Saw this in a YouTube video with a Core system. Looks like some kind of WeCanX module to attach multiple WeCanX devices. I’ve looked online but no luck.

I added the yellow arrow to module

What type of vehicle is it? I see a havis toughbook mount, a charge guard, and a sierra modem on that rack too. Is it a vehicle specific interface?

I am used to seeing these as expansions

It was in a 2020 Ford PIU. I think I saw 3 or 4 of those CEM16s being used as well.


There are CEM16s over to the far right like you said. It is interesting, the only piece of equipment there I haven't messed with (besides the part in question) is the howler. There is an external siren amp so this is a dual tone system and this is the model of howler that actually has it's own tones built in, so I'm not sure. Going off of wire color (green and grey in a black shroud) and wire routing (hard to tell) it does seem to be involving the howler and external siren amp, but as far as finding it listed as a Whelen part, I'm not able to.

I left a comment on the video asking, we shall see if they reply.

Maybe a more professional way of sorting the wires for the sirens and howler, the pic below they used a simple terminal block.

I saw your comment. If they don’t reply I might go crazy and contact them lol.

After zooming in, it looks like something maybe made in house.

Yeah, I think it's a custom organizer for the control wires for the auditory warning.

Looks to be a custom printed pcb board and a 3d printed enclosure. Funny, I actually just ordered some customs pcbs yesterday that I designed for an upcoming build in order to do the same thing.
