Visitors will also be able to see a few other solutions, such as:

• Ethernet over Coax (EoC) CCTV solution that upgrades image quality with minimal cost and downtime, facilitating IP data transmission across existing analog cabling, allowing customers to upgrade to a highly superior IP system without disruption and replacing all installation cabling.
• nHLL linear LED fixture used in Zone 2 and 21 and 22 hazardous areas, manufactured with aluminum enclosure and a high-impact resistant polycarbonate cover. It is engineered for long-life reliability and performance in areas prone to corrosion, moisture and adverse weather.
• Smart Universal Marshalling (MTL SUM5) offering a single cabinet design that simplifies commissioning, start-up, maintenance, and documentation, minimizing CapEx, and maximizing investment return. Its easy configuration requires no specialized engineering. It reduces the number of marshaling component types from 20 to 7, simplifying procurement, commissioning, and maintenance. The SUM5's modular design allows for easy adaptation to late changes in I/O or surges at minimum cost and time.
