Kapsch CarrierCom announced that the implementation of the Railway Dedicated Network (RDN) solutions for the Société Nationale Des Chemins De Fer Luxembourgeois (CFL) is completed.
The GSM-R standard based system covers 271 km of track and features roaming agreements with all neighbouring railway providers. In addition, the scope of work includes the maintenance of the system until the end of the year 2021.
Starting in 2015, Kapsch implemented the all-IP solution RDN.core, which is built on the 3rd Generation Partnership Project Release 4 (R4), RDN.base stations, railway transmission networks and dispatcher solutions. The system helps to increase railway efficiency and safety by providing reliable and secure communications among railway operational staff, including dispatchers, train drivers and station controllers.
“With the completion of the implementation of the project in Luxembourg, we closed the last white spot of the GSM-R coverage in the Benelux countries. Once again we made a big step towards the standardization of railway communication in Europe. Which means a more efficient and safer railway traffic across European countries and boarders,” Kari Kapsch, CEO of Kapsch CarrierCom said.
