EtherWAN — Canadian Distributor
Tacel deploys EtherWAN industrial Ethernet switches and ITS-grade communication infrastructure across Canadian traffic networks — hardened for cabinet temperatures, with PoE+ support for cameras and detection sensors. The networking layer your intersections depend on.
About EtherWAN
EtherWAN builds industrial and ITS-grade networking hardware engineered for the harsh environment of a traffic cabinet. Its hardened Ethernet switches tolerate the wide temperature range and vibration that would shorten the life of commercial-grade gear, and PoE+ support lets a single cable power and connect cameras and detection sensors — the communication layer that ties an intersection's devices back to the central system.
Tacel deploys EtherWAN switches and communication infrastructure across Canadian traffic networks. We supply the industrial Ethernet switches, ITS communication equipment and PoE networking in the lineup, and our technicians design and build the network segment so detection, video and signal data move reliably between the cabinet and the traffic management centre. Buying through Tacel keeps the networking hardware on a Canadian supply chain with local support.

EtherWAN applications in Canada
Cabinet networking
Hardened EtherWAN switches survive the temperature range and vibration inside a traffic cabinet, connecting controllers, cameras and sensors where commercial-grade gear would fail.
PoE for cameras and sensors
PoE+ ports power and connect cameras and detection sensors over a single cable, simplifying intersection wiring and avoiding separate power runs to each device.
ITS communication backbone
EtherWAN switches form the fibre and copper backbone that carries detection, video and signal data between field cabinets and the traffic management centre.

Frequently asked questions
Is Tacel an authorized EtherWAN distributor in Canada?
Yes. Tacel deploys EtherWAN industrial Ethernet and ITS communication hardware across Canadian traffic networks, with stock and field support from its four offices.
Which EtherWAN products does Tacel carry?
Tacel supplies EtherWAN's hardened industrial Ethernet switches, ITS communication equipment and PoE networking hardware.
Do you provide configuration and support?
Yes. Tacel's technicians configure switches, set up VLANs and PoE budgets, verify links in the field, and handle warranty/RMA service in Canada.
Why source EtherWAN through Tacel?
Sourcing EtherWAN through Tacel removes cross-border importing, customs paperwork and U.S. return-shipping — you order from a Canadian supplier, stock pulls from one of our four offices, and any RMA stays in Canada. Our technicians configure the switches, set up VLANs and PoE budgets, and verify the link back to the traffic management centre, so the network is built and tested in the field rather than shipped as loose hardware.
