PTC Technology update

摘要

Collins Aerospace has developed a node on the Class I interoperable train control (ITC) federated network designed to allow seamless communications from the back office to the locomotive and between operations. Utilizing VHP cellular, Wi-Fi and MPLS, ARTNC RailwayNet can deliver a mandate-compliant, secure, tailored PTC messaging solution that reduces the need to hire and train new personnel, according to company officials in an email. ARINC RailwayNet is built on Collins Aerospace's mission-critical communications infrastructure that's trusted by the global aviation industry, they said. The complexity of PTC requirements make it paramount for short lines and commuter railroads to choose a reliable, secure and cost-effective solution that supports seamless messaging interoperability, Collins Aerospace officials say. Leveraging the company's integrated rail control centers, information management and network solutions to deliver an end-to-end solution, ARINC RailwayNet is designed to enable full back-office and inter-office messaging, security, data and configuration management, as well as monitoring, diagnostics and notifications.
