The end-of-life for GSM-R is approaching, and transitioning to 5G-based FRMCS is essential for deploying Automated Train Operation (ATO) and real-time predictive maintenance. This transformation is complex, but our special report provides the expert guidance you need. Be among the first to receive our essential special report – secure your copy now!

FRMCS ReportYour roadmap to the future of railway communications 

The change from GSM-R to the 5G-based FRMCS is the most critical communications transformation the rail industry has faced in two decades. This isn’t just a technology refresh. It’s the foundation for a new era of digital, automated, and sustainable rail transport. 

Pre-register for our exclusive special report, FRMCS: Navigating the Future of Railway Communications, and gain the strategic insights you need to lead this change with confidence when the report is released. Made possible with the support of Nokia, leaders in mission-critical rail communications.

Build the network of tomorrow, today 

The end-of-life for GSM-R is approaching, and the 2027-2030 implementation window for FRMCS is closing fast. This transformation presents a monumental opportunity to build a network that will power your operations for generations. But the path forward is complex, requiring expertise across 5G, IP/MPLS, cloud architecture, and cybersecurity. Our special report provides the expert guidance you need to navigate every step. 

Inside this essential guide, you will discover: 

  • The FRMCS Imperative: Understand the technical limitations of GSM-R and why the shift to 5G is essential for deploying Automated Train Operation (ATO), predictive maintenance, and real-time video. 
  • Strategic Deployment Models: Explore the benefits of a 5G Standalone (SA) architecture, network slicing, and phased investment strategies that de-risk your migration and maximise ROI. 
  • Resilient Backhaul Design: Learn how to engineer an IP/MPLS backhaul network for 99.9999% availability, ensuring your critical services are always online. 
  • Robust Cybersecurity: Get a blueprint for a multi-layered security architecture that protects your critical infrastructure from emerging IP-based threats and ensures compliance with standards like the NIS2 Directive. 

This special report is your essential resource for planning a secure, reliable, and future-ready FRMCS implementation.
