Carmel Tunnels Turnkey integration |
Carmel Tunnels is considered the second largest BOT project ever undertaken in the Middle East. The project’s goal was to create a 6.5 Km tunnel to connect Israel's Coastal Highway at the southern entrance of Haifa with the northern entrance, while bypassing the city center.
-
Advanced communications infrastructure - connects security and surveillance systems (e.g. video, audio, etc.) as well as operations systems (e.g. gates).
- Emergency communications - a communications infrastructure that would support continuous communication with the outside, even in the event of crisis, such as terrorist attack. In addition, the project required a solution that will allow unified communication between various emergency forces.
Rotal Networks was contracted to implement and deploy a fiber optic communication network that will allow continuous uninterrupted connection to the outside. The solution included turnkey integration of all communications in the tunnels, including RF, using antenna systems and Leaky cables and Integration of all communication systems into a single system.
The solution included the implementation of uninterrupted communications infrastructure throughout the tunnel for both routine and emergency. In case of emergency, public safety forces can continuously communicate via dedicated channels and can also share a dedicated open channel with all the forces involved including the control room. The solution also included the ability to direct the public during an emergency through live radio reports on specific radio channels.
The project was successfully implemented and the tunnel was opened to the public in October 2010. |
