Knorr-Bremse Selectron offers highly integrated system solutions for processing data, managing processes and optimizing connectivity in rail vehicles – generally known as Rail Computing & Communication (RCC). The Train Control and Management System (TCMS), for example, covers multiple areas of application: Like the human nervous system, it acts as a control center connecting together the entire train’s traction, braking, entrance, HVAC and lighting systems and wet cells. Essentially, TCMS controls almost all vehicle management and monitoring functions.

RCC systems play a vital role in the digitization and automation of rail vehicles. But in view of the sheer variety of different applications, there is no single, universal RCC solution. This is where the Selectron Rail Computing & Communication platform comes into play. It acts as a central hardware platform that includes the various control and communication units for vehicle systems as well as the necessary software such as the operating system and user tools. Thanks to a comprehensive selection of components and systems, Selectron can flexibly adapt individual subsystems to the specific requirements of vehicle manufacturers or operators, combining them to form a sophisticated, all-embracing vehicle ecosystem.
This is how Selectron ensures, for example, that new systems installed in the course of train modernization projects can always communicate with the older systems, while simultaneously ensuring that the system as a whole complies with the very latest cybersecurity and other safety standards.
