CUSTOM TRAFFIC CABINETS

Western Systems offers a wide range of traffic cabinet options, including NEMA, Caltrans, and ATC-form factor styles. Plus all custom builds as well. We specialize in custom-built cabinets tailored for complex signal operations, high-demand intersections, and corridor performance upgrades. Whether an agency needs a standard NEMA cabinet or a functionally enhanced enclosure designed for future-proofing signalized intersections, we can deliver to specification.

Yes. Our cabinets are fully customizable to meet city-specific engineering standards, regional operating environments, and statewide compliance protocols. We frequently work with local DOTs and transportation departments to incorporate unique features, such as added load centers, power backup integration, internal climate management, and specialized wiring layouts for adaptive signal operations or ITS deployments. Every custom cabinet is engineered with field crews and long-term reliability in mind.

All Western Systems traffic cabinets are built to meet or exceed applicable industry standards, including NEMA TS-1 and TS-2, Caltrans TEES, and ATC 5301. Enclosures are UL-listed and constructed to withstand extreme environmental conditions, vandalism, and electrical interference. Our team regularly consults with agencies to ensure each cabinet complies with evolving federal, state, and regional requirements—whether for new corridor builds or signal upgrades.

Our custom cabinets are designed to seamlessly house and power today’s most advanced traffic management systems. That includes preemption hardware, adaptive signal control, video detection, Ethernet switches, and system health monitoring tools. Built-in cable routing and mounting configurations make field installations straightforward, while internal layouts are optimized for ease of maintenance and technician access. Cabinet layouts also support modular expansion as agencies scale up their smart mobility infrastructure.

Yes, our custom traffic cabinets are engineered to support connected vehicle technology, roadside units (RSUs), and low-latency communication devices. We work directly with agencies and consultants to provide mounting solutions, power supply considerations, and network integration support to accommodate emerging connected vehicle needs. Whether it’s a pilot project or corridor-wide deployment, our cabinets are future-ready.

Custom traffic cabinets can be built with serviceability in mind—reducing unnecessary field calls and minimizing signal downtime. Options like climate-controlled fan systems, corrosion-resistant materials, and smart diagnostics help maintain equipment health over the long term. Agencies also benefit from layouts that reduce technician access time, assisting teams to stay ahead of maintenance schedules and respond proactively instead of reactively.

Western Systems’ ATC+ and P+ cabinets are engineered to go beyond traditional ATC form factors—offering enhanced safety, resilience, and operational efficiency for agencies managing high-demand intersections and extreme weather conditions. ATC+ delivers a clean, modular layout designed for modern electronics, improved technician access, and seamless integration with advanced ITS devices such as adaptive controllers, detection systems, and communication switches. The P+ cabinet adds an elevated layer of resiliency with built-in backup power capabilities, optimized heat management, and wiring architecture designed specifically for rapid storm response and minimal downtime. These cabinet platforms reflect our field-driven approach: enabling cities and DOTs to future-proof their infrastructure while improving serviceability, reliability, and real-world performance during outages and peak-hour traffic loads.
