Optex TC-10U Wireless Driveway Transmitter

Product Description

The OPTEX TC-10U is a wireless driveway transmitter designed to detect vehicle and pedestrian traffic and send a signal to a compatible receiver unit. It functions as the sensing and signaling component in a driveway alert system, notifying operators when someone enters a monitored area. The TC-10U pairs with the RC-20U receiver and is installed by security, low-voltage, or general electrical contractors in residential and light commercial applications. Its wireless design eliminates the need to run signal wire between the sensor and the receiver, simplifying installation in retrofit and new-construction scenarios alike.

This transmitter is suited for driveway, gate, and perimeter monitoring applications where wired sensor runs are impractical or cost-prohibitive. It is commonly deployed at residential driveways, private roads, parking areas, and commercial entry points. The TC-10U is sold as a single unit and is intended for use alongside the RC-20U receiver to form a complete driveway alert system.
