EDI Brings Technology to a New Level with ATC Cabinet Solutions

Eberle Design Inc. has been at the forefront of the industry's development of the new Advanced Traffic Controller cabinet – bringing the traffic cabinet of the future into the market today. The ATC cabinet is an open architecture traffic control cabinet designed to take advantage of ultra-low power LED signals, enhanced fail-safer design and diagnostics, and compact double-density size and modularity. EDI looks forward to working closely with agencies wishing to deploy and bring to their infrastructure ATC cabinet solutions.
