A utility tunnel, utility corridor, or utilidor is a passage built underground to carry utility lines such as electricity, steam, water supply pipes, and sewer pipes, with manholes for regular inspection, repair, maintenance, and replacement. The utility tunnels not only guarantee the normal operation of the city but also play a key role in coordinating and integrating, saving space resources, and improving management.
To help conduct the maintenance or repair effectively, Maiwe Communication designs an industrial solution including video monitoring systems and environment and monitoring subsystems for utilidors. The program adopts advanced industrial Ethernet real-time communication technology, with a two-layer design. The lower layer is used for the industrial Ethernet ring network transmission, mainly to achieve real-time, reliable transmission of control signals on the ring network. The monitoring will be conducted by sensors and alarms deployed in the tunnel, and the data collected will be transferred via the industrial ring network to the monitoring center on the ground for analysis. The upper layer is designed for management and control. By connecting to all monitoring terminals, it collects image information through the system's front-end monitoring camera. It reflects the monitoring scene on the connected monitor after processing by the system. Meanwhile, the management software will conduct a deep analysis of the data, to ensure the the accuracy and reliability of the data.
For industrial network communication equipment, MISCOM7028G, MISCOM7212G, and other industrial network switches establish a communication ring network to ensure the transmission speed with a high bandwidth network, and at the same time, ensure that the video transmission is not lagging. These Maiwe switches support a MW-Ring ring network, with a self-healing time of <20ms, which can provide backbone and control networks with extremely reliable assurance. in addition, Maiwe also provides high-performance network management software, which can easily complete the intelligent maintenance and management of various types of equipment in the network, forming the interconnection, interoperability, and data sharing between various systems.
