Technology Category	Functional Applications - Enterprise Asset Management Systems (EAM) Functional Applications - Remote Monitoring & Control Systems Processors & Edge Intelligence - System on a Chip Sensors - Temperature Sensors Sensors - Vibration Sensors
Applicable Industries	Railway & Metro
Applicable Functions	Business Operation
Use Cases	Asset Health Management (AHM)
Challenge	• Difficult environment. Communications equipment on trains must function properly in harsh conditions, such as environment temperatures ranging from -25°C to +85°C, according to the EU standard EN50155. • Railway regulations. All products in a train must adhere to strict standards, relating to working vibration, power consumption, and lifetime. • Lengthy process. Time to market in the railway industry can take years from concept to mass production, so product design requires a solid long term vision. Read More
