Danlaw rolls out C-V2X OBU and RouteLink Roadside Unit

Vehicle connectivity solutions provider Danlaw has rolled out its C-V2X AutoLink On-board Unit (OBU) and RouteLink Roadside Unit (RSU), aimed at helping create improved mobility solutions.

Both products are powered by the Qualcomm 9150 C-V2X chipset solution from Qualcomm Technologies.

C-V2X is a new solution for V2X communications that supports enhanced automotive safety, automated driving, and traffic efficiency.

C-V2X has been designed to use future improvements in cellular radio technology based on standards set by the globally recognised 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP).

Danlaw said that its AutoLink OBU and RouteLink RSU can use either PC5 C-V2X or dedicated short-range communications (DSRC) radios for added compatibility with global intelligent transportation systems.

AutoLink and RouteLink are capable of operating on the 5.9GHz spectrum to transmit basic safety messages with lane-level accuracy, offering a 360° situational awareness.

Danlaw engineering vice-president Scott Morrell said: “At Danlaw, we strive to develop forward-thinking technology that will improve safety and mobility in cities around the world.

“By combining Danlaw’s extensive V2X systems development experience with the Qualcomm 9150 chipset, we were able to create the most reliable and ITS-compatible C-V2X solution on the market.

“We are confident that our customers will greatly benefit from the superior performance and connectivity of our AutoLink and RouteLink products.”

According to Danlaw, both products have been developed with an aim to boost mobility in smart cities, optimise public transportation initiatives, and build a safer driving environment for more than 270 million vehicles currently moving on the road.
