Railway Web-Seminar Series

The amount of data communication required in rail vehicles is increasing. Passengers want to keep in touch with their families, friends and colleagues by using Wi-Fi. At the same time, passenger information and entertainment systems (PIES) provide data about the route, the weather and offer news, entertainment or advertisements.

In this Web-Seminar you will discover:

• Solutions for future proofed data transmission in rail vehicles
• Out of the box high-performance Ethernet cabling (including fiber optics)
• Outlook into future technologies such as Single Pair Ethernet (SPE)

The energy distribution sector is currently undergoing a very dynamic phase. Existing requirements are changing and new ones are being added. At the same time, power density is increasing and systems must become more efficient. High currents and voltages must be transmitted efficiently and, above all, safely.

In this Web-Seminar you will discover:

• A completely new system architecture for power distribution in rail vehicles, including an alternative solution for the UIC 552 interface
• Secure solutions for the transmission of high current and voltage in harsh environments
• How to set up scalable solutions quickly and easily using well thought out coding
• How to realise reliable shielded solutions without shrinking or taping

High reliability, low operating and maintenance costs, simple, error-free operation and compliance with current standards and safety norms - these are the characteristics that operators expect when their aging fleet is overhauled. The so-called “hard-wired" interfaces, which offer little flexibility and retrofitting options, should be replaced by highly flexible, space- and weight-optimised connector solutions. Connectors and pre-assembled cable sets from HARTING support a time-saving and thus cost-optimised general overhaul of rail vehicles and, thanks to their modularity, offer optimal conditions for future-oriented retrofitting / expansion.

In this Web-Seminar you will discover:

• How to optimise operating and maintenance costs by using Plug & Play solutions
• How you can meet current rail-relevant standards with clever, retrofittable solutions
• How to retrofit or expand data networks in order to transmit high data rates

Manufacturers of railway vehicles continuously try to reduce the energy consumption per passenger-kilometre driven. In addition to increasing capacity utilisation and using drives that are more efficient, weight is one of the most important levers in this respect. Compact and lighter connectors as well as weight-reduced cable assemblies can make a measurable contribution. The potential savings seem low compared to the overall weight of a train but they can reach up to a few kilograms per wagon.

In this Web-Seminar you will discover:

• Connectors providing weight savings up to 10KG per wagon
• New system solutions to replace distribution boxes and thereby optimise cable routing
• How future-oriented cabling can contribute to weight reduction
• How you can save space, for example, with our new Han^® HPR Compact connector series
