Need for a robust smartphone solution on high
speed trains.
The company operates high speed trains across the Western
and Central European regions. They wished to equip its train
controllers with mobile devices, which will provide real time
traffic information, various alerts and help with the easy
distribution of internal communications from controllers to the
operation center.
Since the communication between the controllers and the
operation center directly relates to the safety of the trains and
their passengers, the management was very keen on finding a
solution that must not fail at all cost.
Additionally, the company wanted to provide an easy user
interface for their employees so that they can even prepare a
simple user guide.
Realizing the safety importance of the trains, Samsung and its
partners worked closely to provide the most reliable solutions,
and distributed more than tens of thousands GALAXY
smartphones. All devices are now being monitored and
controlled by SAP Afaria’s MDM system.
All devices are equipped with the company’s custom
applications so that the train controllers can review real-time
information on traffic, accidents, and other related abnormal
situations while they are on the trains. Also, Samsung devices
enabled the controllers and the operation center to
communicate with each other without any outage on the high-
speed trains.
During the investigation stage, the company has considered various devices that would be able to meet their unique requirements.
However, Samsung GALAXY smartphones gave them the most reliable solution.
The availability of SAP Afaria’s MDM solution with the devices gave them the ability to trace and control the train controllers’ devices
even on the high speed trains. Also, the devices were able to host the company’s custom applications that they could use to
communicate with the train controllers.
Most importantly, the hardware and network performances of the devices on the high-speed trains exceeded their expectations. The
company stressed the importance of having a solution that must not have any failure, and Samsung GALAXY smartphones’
performance was able to satisfy the management team.
GALAXY smartphones were proven to be the
strongest device, resisting in more than 300 km/h
speed environment.
