VistoTek Industrial Switch Applied in Intelligent Transportation
Challenge
- To alleviate urban traffic congestion and enhance the road network resources, cities are increasing their construction of urban expressways.
- In order to provide operational and management personnel with a clear understanding of real-time conditions on the road and toll stations in the future, it is necessary to improve monitoring systems, toll systems, traffic information systems, ETC, and other related equipment and systems.
- This is related to the issue of traffic congestion, and it is necessary for communication equipment to have real-time stability and the ability to quickly self-recover in case of failure. High-definition cameras need to be connected, and there are strict requirements for the bandwidth of communication equipment.
- The toll stations on expressways, gantry frames, and tunnels have harsh environments, including temperature, humidity, dust prevention, shock resistance, and electromagnetic interference prevention, which require higher requirements for interconnected devices.
Why VistoTek
- The industrial-grade design is adopted to adapt to the harsh environment inside toll stations, including requirements for temperature, humidity, dust prevention, shock resistance, and electromagnetic interference prevention.
- The overall network is real-time reliable, with high-speed ring redundancy and self-recovery capabilities, and can achieve remote equipment management and equipment fault alarms.
- The product has stable performance, long-term durability, low failure rate, easy system construction and installation, as well as easy operation, maintenance, and management in the later stage.
- The open industrial Ethernet design has good scalability and compatibility, and can be integrated with other network systems and applications within the toll station.
- With high flow rate and high bandwidth, it provides stronger network load capacity, achieves stable transmission of toll data, and ensures uninterrupted network data transmission.

Access Layer
As an access layer device, the VTK-I3084GS-POE provides 8 Gigabit PoE ports + 4 Gigabit SFP ports, with ports 1-8 supporting PoE in compliance with IEEE802.3af/at standards, and providing a maximum output of 30W per port. The device features an industrial-grade structural design that is sturdy and flexible, able to withstand harsh environments such as high temperature, humidity, strong seismic activity, and electromagnetic interference at toll stations. At the same time, PoE ports can provide network power to devices such as IP cameras in toll booths and lanes, saving power and cabling and making it more conducive to on-site installation and maintenance. In addition, it supports PoE power management, QoS traffic priority management, and VLAN management, which can optimize and manage the toll system network to ensure the priority transmission of important data.
Aggregation Layer
As an aggregation layer switch, the VTK-I5324GCX provides 24 Gigabit electrical ports + 8 Gigabit optical-electric multiplexing ports + 4 10 Gigabit SFP fiber ports, with a backplane bandwidth of up to 598Gbps and three-layer network management functions. Based on standard network protocols, the VTK-I302484GS builds an industrial-grade 10 Gigabit network architecture from the access layer to the aggregation layer, providing greater network bandwidth and stronger load capacity, enabling efficient transmission of toll data, and compatible with the security video monitoring network and office network systems in toll stations. It also supports ring network redundancy technology with a self-recovery time of ≤20ms, which can quickly recover from network failures and ensure uninterrupted communication of important equipment.
