In this video, in order to send & receive signal across trucks and vehicles, roadside units(RSU) play an unbeatable roles within this technology.



RSU would be a device which is the centre for all the information from the vehicles to exchange and deliver. Thus, they are always outdoor, mount high & firm. It should be waterproof or weatherproof, usually with surge protection. It also should be low profile to keep any attention out. IK09 standard product would be recommended. The omni and the mushroom-shaped external antenna contains the above significances, too. They are from Grand-Tek outdoor DSRC & C-V2X/V2V Communication series.
