The telecoms network is the nervous system of any rail operation, carrying everything from safety-critical signalling and train control to passenger information and CCTV.

Nokia and Deutsche Bahn deploy 1900 MHz 5G SA network to support FRMCS and enable real-time, mission-critical rail operations.

Nokia’s IP/MPLS solution will enable BEM to have a high-capacity, low-latency, reliable and secure transmission backbone to support both vital and non-vital railway applications.

Leveraging Nokia’s 1830 Photonic Service Switch (PSS) and advanced transponder technology, the enhanced network achieves a substantial increase in transport capacity while minimizing cost per bit.

From mission-critical WANs to OT cloud and AI, metro operators’ digital ambitions depend on resilient telecoms that ensure security, scalability and performance, writes Benoît Leridon, Nokia’s Network Infrastructure Transportation Market Leader.

Key features of the technology include built-in failover, self-healing capabilities and real-time monitoring to ensure high availability and efficiency.

From virtualisation to AI-driven maintenance, Nokia’s Benoît Leridon highlights how OT clouds and data centres are becoming essential pillars of resilient, intelligent rail operations.
