EtherWAN EX78900G API helps restore critical camera visibility before road incidents escalate.

When a roadside camera feed goes down, every second without visibility can delay critical response decisions. With RESTful API integration, the EX78900G Series helps traffic platforms remotely diagnose field issues, restore critical camera feeds, and respond faster

When the nearest camera goes dark, the control center loses more than video.

Severe rain, strong winds, fallen branches, poor visibility, and moving traffic create high-pressure conditions for traffic operators. Without a live feed from the camera closest to the affected road section, teams may lose the ability to verify hazards, assess traffic impact, and guide drivers away from risk in time.

Loss of field visibility can slow every response decision.

 Blockage cannot be assessed immediately.

 Field confirmation may delay traffic diversion

 Drivers may not receive guidance in time.

 On-site dispatch slows incident response.

Beyond stable power and reliable data transmission, traffic monitoring networks need field communication solutions that integrate with backend platforms and support remote diagnostics.

Discover. Diagnose. Design. Deploy.

When an on-site camera loses its feed, the traffic management system can use the RESTful API to remotely check the switch and port status, then power-cycle the designated PoE port as needed.

 Discover

Retrieve device, IP, interface, PoE, LLDP, and traffic status to confirm that the roadside switch remains online and remotely manageable.

 Diagnose

Map the affected camera to its switch port, verify port and PoE status, and check traffic counters to identify whether the camera feed or connection has stopped responding.

 Design

Use targeted PoE control to power-cycle the connected camera, helping restore the video feed while minimizing impact on other roadside devices.

 Deploy

Once visibility is restored, operators can verify the road incident, update guidance messages, and support faster traffic response from the control center.

Industrial PoE switching built for roadside visibility and remote control

Designed for traffic, security, and smart city infrastructure, the EX78900G Series helps roadside edge devices stay powered, connected, and visible to the management platform—so operators can respond with better information and greater control.

8 Gigabit PoE ports

Connect multiple roadside cameras, warning devices, sensors, and edge devices from a single industrial switch.

Up to 90W PoE per port

Support high-power PoE cameras and outdoor devices deployed in demanding field environments.

Up to 480W total PoE budget

Power multiple field devices simultaneously for traffic monitoring and roadside response applications.

Up to four 100M/1G/2.5G SFP uplinks

Support flexible backhaul, network expansion, and high-bandwidth traffic data transmission.

RESTful API integration

Bring switch visibility, PoE status, port diagnostics, and remote control into traffic platform workflows.

Restore Visibility

Remotely check device status before dispatching field teams to accelerate initial assessment.

Smarter Dispatch

Check device status first, then dispatch only when needed.
 

PoE Controllable

Remotely restart cameras and warning devices through port-level PoE control.
 

Integrate Field Visibility and Control into Your Traffic Platform

From remotely restarting field cameras to supporting warning devices and traffic guidance workflows, the EX78900G Series helps traffic platforms restore visibility, assess field conditions, and control connected devices when it matters most, enabling more reliable road monitoring and incident response.
