Earlier this year, Amtrak began testing new high-speed trains for the line that connects Boston with Washington D.C. via New York and Philadelphia. The trains will enter regular service later this year. Just a few weeks ago, there was a groundbreaking for the Brightline high-speed rail line connecting the Los Angeles area with Las Vegas with speeds of up to 200 mph. It is scheduled to be completed in 2028. These projects and other high-speed rail activity in the U.S. and around the world underscore the importance of intelligent signaling and communication systems. An integrated network approach to rail connectivity is therefore crucial for managing the entire transit system, including trains, tracks, stations, and operational control centers. MPLS-TP technology is an ideal fit for the integrated networks required by high-speed rail networks, as it supports critical communication and strict operational, safety, efficiency, and reliability requirements. Belden’s mass transit experts can help agencies and companies create a reliable integrated network backbone, including trackside/wayside, stations and operational control centers. Our Customer Innovation Centers act as labs where we can work together with our customers to design, build and test possible solutions in an environment that replicates theirs. #innovativesolutions #highspeedrail #integratednetwork #masstransit
