Moxa demonstrates obsolescence management of train network refurbishments

Moxa is taking advantage of the Innotrans 2014 exhibition in Berlin to showcase its new products and technologies its ToughNet series of EN 50155 compliant managed Ethernet switches which support Moxa´s new technology dynamic ring coupling that enables the speedy and automated configuration of Ethernet Switches aboard trains when consists are rearranged in mid-journey. It also guarantees inter-consist network recovery in less than one second, and even faster intra-consist recovery in 20 milliseconds.

It also guarantees inter-consist network recovery in less than one second, and even faster intra-consist recovery in 20 milliseconds.

Unlike RSTP, dynamic ring coupling does not disrupt intra-consist networks during reorientation. As a result, all the Ethernet network services today’s expected by long-distance railway passengers and operators - CCTV surveillance, wi-fi access, passenger information systems, public announcement systems, and more - can be seamlessly enjoyed even when coupling switches are rearranged mid-journey.

    Deryk Whyte provides an overview of how the New Zealand Transport Agency's InfoConnect concept was developed. Historically, the New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) (formerly Transit New Zealand) has faced challenges in communicating effectively with road users, its customers, about highway-related events or incidents in a timely, accurate manner. Prior to 2007, Transit relied on a third-party organisation to collect and disseminate national road condition information. This often resulted in incomplete infor

    For some, machine vision is the coming technology. For others, it’s already here. Although it remains a relative newcomer to the ITS sector, its effects look set to be profound and far-reaching. Encapsulating in just a few short words the distinguishing features of complex technologies and their operating concepts can sometimes be difficult. Often, it is the most subtle of nuances which are both the most important and yet also the most easily lost. Happily, in the case of machine vision this isn’t the case:
