INTEGRATED RAILWAY TELECOMMUNICATIONS

Railway companies today are faced with growing mobility of people and goods, increased security and safety requirements together with permanent pressure on operational expenses. This is leading to an increasing need for modernising their telecommunications infrastructure. Essentials of this modernisation are to rationalise telecommunications infrastructure, pool services into one integrated managed network and increase automation. These measures help reduce operational costs.

Rising levels of mobility produce higher velocity and cycle rhythms on railway networks, which cause increased security requirements and increased demand for information and broadband communication services for customers. However, legacy network technologies and parallel networks are unsuitable for meeting these demands. It is better to provide a multi-service backbone network for all services. This means lower investment outlay, simplification of operations, lower OPEX and the future-proofing for new applications and services.

With KEYMILE’s flexible system design you can deliver any service in any network. KEYMILE’s products offer a wide range of data, voice and IP interfaces, integrated SDH-function and service availability levels at 99.999%. This makes KEYMILE’s product family the ideal choice for telecommunications networks for railways.

UMUX

UMUX is a hardened multi-service system that integrates a wide variety of applications and interfaces. UMUX provides multiplexing and aggregation as well as optical transport of data in a compact network element. This allows railway companies to consolidate all their telecom requirements on a single telecommunications network made of UMUX systems simply and safely. The services supported include E&M, traditional POTS/ISDN telephony, local battery interfaces, broadband and narrowband data connections, Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet and VoIP applications. With its Ethernet-over-SDH functionality, UMUX combines state-of-the-art Ethernet technology with the deterministic TDM process. Services such as critical IP communication or video surveillance can be provided efficiently, economically and extremely reliably. UMUX features Power-over-Ethernet (PoE+), realizing Ethernet connections in locations without local power, making it suitable for deploying terminal devices such as video cameras, IP telephones, access control systems, wireless access nodes and wireless local networks in remote locations.

Regardless of whether the UMUX systems are deployed in main stations, remote stations or outside plant cabinets, its hardened and well engineered design with an extended operational temperature range and its intuitive management solution constitute the foundation for a hassle-free operation and lowest cost of ownership.

Due to its sophisticated Ethernet over SDH (EoS) functionality, UMUX was accredited by the Swiss Federal Office of Transport for use in closed transmission networks, in accordance with the safety standard EN 50129-1. The UMUX platform from KEYMILE is the only multi-service transmission system that has this accreditation in Switzerland – a leading country in railway technology and solutions.
