Train Connectivity Transformed
Unveiling the Gigabit Train
Gigabit track-to-train connectivity has been touted as essential to transform how we experience rail travel. However, to date, the so-called ‘Gigabit Train’ has been little more than just a concept.
The Blu Wireless mmWave technology for rail has now been proven in practice to deliver gigabit connectivity, bringing the Gigabit Train concept to life across two key commuter lines in the USA on Caltrain, Silicon Valley and SWR, London UK.
Already rolled out on the UK rail network by FirstGroup, LightningBlu, Blu Wireless’ mmWave solution delivers connectivity speeds of up to 3Gbps at up to 300km/h.
Blu Wireless’ mmWave high-speed transport solution addresses railways’ demands for super-fast, robust connectivity by delivering multi-gigabit track-to-train infrastructure.
A Pioneering Partnership in Rail Connectivity
Westermo recently entered into a strategic partnership agreement to use Blu Wireless’ patented mmWave wireless technology in the rail market.
At this year’s InnoTrans, Blu Wireless and Westermo are carrying out their first joint demo of LightningBlu.
The Blu Wireless solution requires zero configuration time if implemented as part of the Westermo suite of products, complementing the overall Westermo Internet on board solution.
