On-board radio frequency connectivity



Our wide portfolio of antennas, cables, and cable assemblies includes all the products required to create a future-proof onboard network that is always connected to the ground services.

 

The ever-growing amount of data generated onboard trains increases the need for a broadband connection between the train and the ground. This is essential for safe and efficient operations. 


We are the leading manufacturer of radio frequency (RF) connectivity for rolling stock and offer an extensive and customisable portfolio of products dedicated to onboard RF connectivity. Our solutions include robust antennas, high-performance RF cables and cable assemblies, all specifically developed to meet the distinct needs of the railway market and to fulfill global railway regulations.

Our SENCITY® rail antenna portfolio offers efficient vehicle-to-ground and train-borne communication through rooftop and in-carriage antennas as well as inter-carriage antennas. Moreover, the portfolio includes our innovative rooftop antennas with integrated gateway and radio modules as well as fully integrated WLAN-access points, eliminating the need for in-carriage gateways.

RF cabling is the backbone of communications on the move. It can be used to connect wireless devices, IP-based networks train control systems, cellular networks and GNSS systems. Our RF cabling has excellent insertion loss and is therefore applicable in frequencies up to 6 GHz (specific items available up to 8 GHz) while meeting approvals for rail applications
