GSM-R – DISPATCHER DUAL MODE – COM MODULE project won in Portugal

Kontron Transportation Unipessoal Lda. has positioned a new solution in the portuguese Railway market - the COM MODULE, to upgrade the existing analog Base Station Controllers for the track-to-train railway telecommunications network.

The Kontron Transportation solution helps to provide long term support (LTS) to the portuguese Railways analog telecommunications network. It reinforces their performance, availability and interoperability towards the existing installed Dual-Mode (GSM-R & Analog) Dispatcher System.


The new COM MODULE will allow a smooth migration of the existing (end-of-life) equipment that currently performs the functions of Technical Operating Position (POT) and Analog-Digital Converters (AD) to a single Kontron server performing both functions in a virtualized environment.

The Kontron equipment selected for this project is an industrial-grade server, the KISS 1U Short V3 CFL; a compact, high-performance and scalable rackmount system, which is not explicitly designed for railways, but fits the customer needs perfectly.

Kontron Transportation Portugal’s expertise in system integration is vital to achieve this solution, comprising a new hardware platform to run existing critical software applications.
