Connect and talk to NTCIP boards from any manufacturer. SolarComm Universal lets you talk to any NTCIP-compatible message board, regardless of manufacturer, and see its location and change messages from your office using our Command Center software.

How SolarComm Universal works

SolarComm Universal plugs into the controller of any NTCIP-compatible message board, and lets you locate, monitor and program that board securely and inexpensively. It’s a modem and GPS package with free communications software, and you can choose to rent or own the hardware.

  • No need to buy, install and maintain modems
  • No reason to manage multiple manufacturers’ control software
  • No longer waste time traveling to the work zone to change messages
  • Never have boards shut down due to low battery voltage

It’s simple, reliable communication to all your NTCIP-compatible boards, all makes and models from any manufacturer. SolarComm Universal is the conduit through which you can communicate with any NTCIP device, regardless of who manufactured it. And because the communication is on a private network, it’s more secure than public IP addressed modems.

What makes SolarComm Universal different?

One Platform, Mixed Fleets

Monitor and manage compatible devices from multiple manufacturers through a single interface.

Modernize at Your Pace

Add connectivity and software capabilities through a retrofit solution rather than wholesale equipment replacement.
