Transportation: Onboard Networks
Powerful and seamless wireless connectivity between train carriages based on TerraBridge 60 GHz mmWave radio.
RADWIN’s TerraBridge radio is purpose-built to meet the growing demand for ultra-high-capacity onboard connectivity in rail transportation. Using IEEE 802.11ad 60 GHz millimeter-wave Point-to-Point technology, it delivers over 1.5 Gbps of aggregated traffic, enabling Ethernet-based networks that dynamically adapt to changes in train configuration.
Compact, lightweight, and visually discreet, TerraBridge supports flexible mounting options in various carriage locations. Engineered for extreme environments and minimal maintenance, it offers a cost-effective, high-speed solution for wireless inter-carriage links, creating an end-to-end onboard gigabit network across any train.
Wireless Inter-Carriage Link
RADWIN’s TerraBridge provides high-speed, uninterrupted connectivity between train carriages, forming a unified gigabit onboard network.
Designed for operational flexibility, TerraBridge is a compact 60 GHz mmWave solution ideal for upgrading or modernizing existing train networks, without the limitations of cabled couplers or constrained legacy infrastructure.
It eliminates bandwidth bottlenecks and mitigates upgrade challenges tied to cost, space, or wear on mechanical components. In dynamic train formations, where carriage configurations change frequently, TerraBridge reduces maintenance & enhances reliability.
Unlike wireless alternatives using 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz Wi-Fi, TerraBridge is immune to interference from onboard and in-station access points. This ensures superior performance and stability, critical for services like onboard Wi-Fi, PIS, and CCTV.
