Wayside Networking and Controller Solutions

Wayside signaling and telecommunication systems that are used along the trackside require large networks to collect and transmit data back to the control center. Some systems also have to collect extra data from railroad turnouts and level crossings in order to ensure smooth daily operations. Moxa’s Ethernet switches and programmable controllers are compliant with the wayside EN 50121 standard to meet these requirements.

Why Moxa

Wayside Communication Network

• V-On technology optimizes networks for multicast and unicast traffic and can ensure millisecond-level network recovery times to form a smooth wayside converged network.
• Turbo Chain provides fast self-healing functionality to ensure network recovery on large wayside networks in less than 20 ms.
• MXstudio is a network management suite that simplifies mass configuration and can monitor and manage up to 2000 nodes in real time, which is ideal for large wayside networks.

Condition Monitoring Systems

• The controllers can help to monitor the power, temperature, current sensors, force sensors, and status of the railroad turnouts. With a 40 kHz sampling rate, engineers can receive precise time-based data.
• The controllers’ prerecording function continuously records analog input data before an event is triggered for improved data completeness.
