As one of Europe's leading suppliers, HUBER+SUHNER offers a wide range of products which provide the platform to build modern rail vehicles...

Making mass transit operations reliable Communication based train control (CBTC) systems have evolved as dominating technology in the railway industry. Implementation of CBTC reduces headways thus increasing line capacity and enabling more flexible train operations. Furthermore CBTC ensures a higher level of safety. In order to guarantee system availability it is crucial that every single connectivity component in the data communication system continues to operate – regardless of external factors such as environmental, mechanical or operational constraints. With HUBER+SUHNER you can collaborate...

Communication based train control Standards Products for trackside and rolling stock installations are exposed to harsh environmental conditions. Railway products from HUBER+SUHNER therefore comply with the following standards and certifications, depending on the area of application: • Fire performance: DIN-5510-2; NF-F16 101/102; BS 6853; prEN 45545-2 • Environmental requirements: EN 50125-3; EN 50155 • IEEE 802.11 a/g/p/n Trackside connectivity solutions can be tested according to country-specific or operator’s requirements. Customised products can also be engineered on request. Features of...

Components for the trackside backbone network Radio-based CBTC enables continuous two-way communication between train and control centre. A fiber optic backbone connects the control centre with a chain of zone control units. In addition, the network redundancy ensures a secure and highly available communication link between train and control unit. HUBER+SUHNER can serve the physical layer of backbone networks with high capacity, single mode fiber optic cables. These cables are made of selected sheath materials in order to comply with stringent fire and smoke performance requirements. They are...

Communication based train control Components for the radio network The radio network ensures continuous and reliable data communication between the train and the trackside backbone network. HUBER+SUHNER provides all passive components to build up this train-totrack network, including trackside antennas, the corresponding low loss coaxial cables and accessories, such as lightning protectors and power splitters. The train borne RF equipment such as roof top antennas, multiplexers and the appropriate cabling solutions is also provided. For the actual connection of the trackside radio and the fiber...
