Rugged, high-performance broadband wireless gear is being deployed in trains, stations, trackside and railyards to support a variety of applications including video security, public Wi-Fi access, and train mechanical telematics and diagnostics. This webcast will discuss the evolution of trackside infrastructure and the architecture of both trackside and on-board broadband wireless equipment required to support high-performance mobile broadband communications. Case studies from major US and UK rail operations will be presented. Stephen Rayment, CTO, BelAir Networks is just back from presenting at the Rail Communications Regulation and Management 2008 Conference in London, UK, and then on his way to the 15th World Congress on Intelligent Transport Systems, New York, NY.
