Black CAT Outstation PlatformThe next generation in traffic monitoring

The Black CAT is an intelligent traffic counter combining all of

the functionality of CA Traffic’s traditional counter classifiers in

to a flexible, modular design with vastly improved specification

and functionality. Our in-house developers have combined

years or experience to bring to the market a counter with added

value, that meets the advanced needs of today’s market whilst

considering tomorrow’s technology.

The Outstation has the ability to conduct multiple survey

types simultaneously, manage and prevent loss of data more

effectively and with the Catalyst In-station software package the

Black CATs can distribute data to multiple in-stations and users,

as well as offering the user advanced fault reporting capabilities.

This sophisticated counter is an ITS and Transport Planning

solution, with the added value of optional Bluetooth Journey

Time technology, Single Loop Classification and

Weigh-In-Motion. Designed to work alongside

existing networks of CA Traffic Counters and

Classifiers, and VDA Pro R2, or Drakewell’s C2

database. With additional software the

Black CAT will distribute real- time data to

UTMC systems.
