Rail telemetry and communications

所面临的挑战

Managing an expansive rail network is in no way a simple task. Whether it is optimizing network capacity or keeping crews safe, challenges arise daily. Yet a lack of cellular network coverage often hampers visibility over networks, compromising your capacity to operate 高效、安全.

我们的解决方案

Our satellite connectivity supports the real-time transfer of telemetry data from your trains to control centers, as well as extending voice coverage from your drivers and staff beyond the range of your existing radio networks. Working with our global partners, we ensure control centers have the data they need to monitor and schedule the movement of locomotives, rolling stock and goods across your entire rail network, 高效、安全.

我们的解决方案s utilize low form factor 物联网专业 终端, such as the Cobham Explorer 325 and 323, which are perfect for mounting on vehicles, locomotives and other machinery. This is combined with the PRISM 网络(PTT) radio communications system that links to the terminal to provide voice communication. By choosing the most cost-effective connectivity channel, our solutions extend coverage beyond the line of sight and ensure you stay connected with crews, 无论他们在哪里.

连接服务

建立在前沿 l波段网络, Viasat’s rail telemetry and communications solutions help ensure that you can access reliable connectivity across your network, covering white spots in terrestrial network as well as providing a backup if existing networks fail. This makes telemetry data such as location, 速度, 标题, and engine diagnostics always available to control centers, no matter where your networks are.
