When Railway Communication Needs to be Clear and Guaranteed, Valid8 Responds

Reliable And Secure - FRMCS Testing Solutions For Railway Communications

With the continuous advancement of communications, comes the need for more advanced communications leveraging broadband technologies. FRMCS, Future Railway Mobile Communication System) is growing in acceptance as the rail industry in Europe moves away from the dated Global System for Mobile Communications-Railway (GSM-R). Testing FRMCS services and interfaces is important. Valid8 delivers a comprehensive range of solutions to meet mission critical testing needs. The Valid8 MCX tester enables operators to test FRMCS, up to 3GPP Rel 17 and FRMCS specification ETSI TR 103 768

It includes test scenarios for:

  • Station Identities
  • Functional Aliases
  • FRMCS Specification ETSI TR 103 768
  • MC-PTT (Push-to-talk)
  • MC-Data
  • MC-Video
  • MCX KPIs  (1, 2 and 3)
