The SL-2-DC can manage solar or AC powered devices but is particularly valuable for monitoring solar assets like bus stop lighting and real-time signage. OutdoorLink
OutdoorLink Inc. released the SL-2-DC controller, its newest addition to the SmartLink™ Asset Management System. The model is designed to manage low voltage digital assets like bus stop lighting, real-time signage, Wi-Fi routers, media players, and illuminated advertising shelters. All assets are controlled through the cloud, which reduces the need for onsite troubleshooting and provides 24/7 monitoring and control.

The SL-2-DC can manage solar or AC powered devices but is particularly valuable for monitoring solar assets like bus stop lighting and real-time signage. When assets like these reach critically low power levels or lose power entirely, the SmartLink™ system notifies users so they can minimize downtime and restore functionality as quickly as possible. Run-times can be changed online to accommodate solar power limitations, which keeps devices running when needed and reduces the frequency of battery replacements.
The SL-2-DC is the most compact controller in the SmartLink™ collection and can be easily installed into new or existing enclosures. OutdoorLink has partnered with Urban Solar to include the SL-2-DC in the deployment of the new PV Stop+. The PV Stop+ provides a pole-mounted solar solution for bus stops without shelters where security lighting and/or digital displays are needed.
Traditionally, bus lane enforcement has relied on manual processes carried out by transit police or parking enforcement officers. While it may be effective in certain municipalities, this approach is resource-intensive and very difficult to sustain.
A phased approach to technology, in-house capabilities, and workforce investment is helping transportation leaders break the reactive cycle and build more resilient, revenue-focused operations.
The landmark event empowers riders across six agencies in the Puget Sound region to tap-and-ride transit using a contactless credit or debit card or a mobile wallet.
Now in its latest edition, the awards recognize forward-thinking solutions that improve safety, operational efficiency, sustainability, rider experience, and overall system performance.
Menard discusses how data-driven signal prioritization is improving efficiency, reliability, and ridership, while offering insight into the innovations driving the next generation of smart mobility. Together, they explore how technology and collaboration are paving the way for a more connected, sustainable future in transit.
The pilot program showcases two companies’ technology at eight bus stops. The companies submitted their ideas through the Transit Tech Lab, which is backed by the Partnership Fund for New York City and provides an accelerated pathway for early to growth-stage companies to solve public transportation challenges for the largest transit agencies in North America.
To accomplish this work, the MBTA announced that four phases of temporary evening service changes will begin on February 28 and continue through April.
