Icomera Unveils the X7 Mobile Connectivity & Applications Router

Icomera’s new X7 router is a gateway to a powerful centralised connectivity platform, supporting multiple, resource-intensive applications including Passenger Wi-Fi, Onboard Infotainment, and Digital Video Surveillance & Analytics.

Supercharged Aggregated Connectivity for Onboard Systems and Passengers

The X7 utilises SureWAN™, Icomera’s industry-leading connectivity technology protocol for intelligently aggregating multiple communication technologies (5G, 4G, satellite, trackside networks etc.) in parallel, to ensure the fastest, most reliable connection available to a moving vehicle. Network traffic can be monitored and managed using IcoShape, Icomera’s data traffic shaping tool, empowering transport operators to make best use of all available Internet bandwidth and control their data costs.

“One or multiple X7 units can be installed on a single vehicle or train consist”, adds Mats Karlsson, Icomera’s Chief Technology Officer and Co-founder. “By distributing network traffic between two routers, load balancing helps ensure optimised performance, while redundancy adds further resiliency to an onboard connectivity solution.”
Multiple Models, Limitless Potential

The X7 router will be available in various models at launch, each optimised to meet specific business requirements:

- For digital video surveillance deployments, in addition to providing real-time data offload, the X7 can be configured with up to two externally accessible SSDs. This is useful when the physical storage and/or removal of video surveillance footage is a requirement, and reduces the need for an external Network Attached Storage (NAS) device. In many cases, the 32TB (2 x 16TB) SSDs allow transport operators to store up to a month’s worth of video footage.

- Some X7 models contain up to two built-in dual band Wi-Fi 6 cards, each capable of operating as an access point to provide high-quality passenger Wi-Fi.

- The X7 contains up to five 5G modems for industry-leading connectivity.

Details of the X7 follow Icomera’s announcement of the world’s first Wi-Fi 7 access point purpose-built for public transportation – the Icomera A2 . By leveraging the increased throughput and reduced latency that Wi-Fi 7 offers, the new access point will facilitate faster and more reliable web browsing, streaming, downloads, and video conferencing for passengers, allowing them to stay connected more effortlessly while they travel.

Introducing the Icomera A2: The World’s First Wi-Fi 7 Access Point Purpose-Built for Public Transportation

Icomera is launching the A2, the very first rail-grade access point to support Wi-Fi 7, the latest and most advanced generation of wireless technology. As connectivity to trains continues to increase based on the utilisation of ever better communications networks (cellular, trackside, satellite etc.), technological upgrades to vehicles themselves, and the implementation of intelligent data...

5G Mobile Connectivity & Applications Routers

Delivering exceptional speed, storage, and performance for both passenger-focused and operational services, Icomera’s ruggedised mobile connectivity and applications routers usher in a new era of cutting-edge connected applications.

SureWAN™ Aggregation Protocol

SureWAN™, Icomera’s proprietary core technology, empowers the modems in our onboard routers to intelligently connect to multiple cellular and other communications networks simultaneously, aggregating all available capacity to deliver the fastest, most reliable connection possible to a moving vehicle.

Wi-Fi 7 Access Points

Leveraging a range of powerful features including support for Wi-Fi 7, Icomera access points act as a critical component in a vehicle’s communications system, delivering faster speeds for passengers.
Digital Video Surveillance

Utilising Icomera’s technology, operators can leverage a vehicle’s onboard Internet connectivity as a backbone for high-resolution digital video surveillance systems and video management software, providing a powerful and fully realised security solution.
