Signal hardware is easy to overlook. Crews inspect the signal heads, the controller cabinet, and the detection system because those are the components that fail loudly and get reported quickly. The brackets, clamps, fasteners, and mounting assemblies holding all of it in position tend to get far less scrutiny, even though they sit outdoors through every freeze, every heat cycle, and every storm the region can produce.

When most people think about a traffic signal, they picture the familiar red, yellow, and green lights that control an intersection. But behind every signal is a system of hardware that supports, mounts, protects, and powers the equipment needed to keep traffic moving safely and efficiently.

We're thrilled to announce that the Pelco TB2N1 Transformer Base has been successfully validated through MASH 2016 crash testing. Our TB2N1 was included in a complete assembly (a 25-foot luminaire pole with a 10-foot arm and transformer base) that passed all three levels of MASH testing. This certification represents a significant commitment to crashworthy design and the safety of the infrastructure professionals who depend on our products.
