Industrial data communication products for road transport applications

Westermo is familiar with mission critical applications in many industries and has therefore developed products and techniques that solve many of the specific needs of the road market. The patented Westermo FRNT protocol allows for the fastest ring recovery in Ethernet networks – 20 ms for a ring with 200 switches. Our Wolverine range is developed around a technology that allows the creation of Ethernet networks on old installed copper cables that can stretch for tens of kilometres along the roadside.
