Eltec Elektronik adds gateway solution to wireless router family

Eltec Elektronik has launched its CyBox GW-P compact and wireless router which uses four long-term evolution (LTE) channels and intelligent control software to support vehicle-land data-sharing communications specifically for trains and buses. It uses all available links to reduce roaming costs and optimise available bandwidths. CyBox GW-P comes with data speeds of 600 Mbit/s (downloads) and 200 Mbit/s (uploads). A Wave 2 module provides data speeds of up to 1.7 Gbit/s and 4x4 MIMO as well as two Gigabit

Eltec Elektronik has launched its CyBox GW-P compact and wireless router which uses four long-term evolution (LTE) channels and intelligent control software to support vehicle-land data-sharing communications specifically for trains and buses. It uses all available links to reduce roaming costs and optimise available bandwidths.

CyBox GW-P comes with data speeds of 600 Mbit/s (downloads) and 200 Mbit/s (uploads). A Wave 2 module provides data speeds of up to 1.7 Gbit/s and 4x4 MIMO as well as two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces for local communication.

The solution is compatible with the railway standard EN 50155. Passengers’ mobile Wi-Fi-capable devices can communicate with the internet while on a train, coach or trams. Personal data is protected from unauthorised access via a configurable firewall.
