RSU-352 is the most advanced V2X roadside unit featuring a global V2X solution; the hardware supports either C-V2X or DSRC-V2X communication standards with appropriate V2X stack embedded, reducing the cost and complexity for cooperative intelligent transportation systems (C-ITS) deployments.

The rugged waterproof IP67 aluminum enclosure protects against water and dust ingress. A GORE® vent balances the air pressure to increase the RSU service life. Additionally, surge protectors are affixed to both the antenna and PoE ports, increasing the level of protection.

With embedded ITS-G5 or IEEE 1609 V2X stack for either DSRC-V2X or C-V2X (PC5), users can directly use the RSU for secondary software development, without the hassle of handling the V2X protocol details from scratch.

  • Complete V2X system, containing CRATON2/PLUTON2 V2X chipsets, GNSS, eHSM, 256MB DDR3 RAM, and 512MB NAND, and V2Xcast® software.
  • A user-friendly V2Xcast® software contains:
    • Standard compliant V2X stacks embedded.
    • Consistent V2Xcast®APIs for Service, Tx/Rx, PoTi, J2735 or ITS-G5 compliant Messages encode/code for secondary development of your own applications.
    • Application example codes, including Event Detector to detect remote vehicle and roadside events, Traffic Signal Detector to detect current position’s signal phase, RTK Sample Application to improve GNSS accuracy.
  • Secured V2X communication supports SCMS or CCMS including the V2X PKI certificate management and the private key operation on the embedded Hardware Security Module (eHSM).
  • IP67 aluminum enclosure, -40°C ~ +85°C operating temperature, PoE Surge Protector, GORE® Vent, and stainless steel mounting bracket ensure performance reliability in harsh outdoor environments.
  • Innovative software-defined, RSU can flexibly shift between DSRC-V2X or C-V2X with one V2X stack (IEEE 1609 or ITS-G5 V2X standard) through local/remote firmware update.
  • Lowest entry and total ownership cost: bundle license right to use the software on the hardware (per MAC address) at one fixed price, no extra license fee or royalty required.
