Mobile Wireless Gateway

The CyBox GW-P is a robust wireless communication gateway for railway applications. It offers stable, secure, and broadband LTE connections for train-to-ground communication and high-speed internet. The device hosts multiple LTE interfaces for parallel LTE channel use and thus maximized throughput, multiple Wi-Fi interfaces to connect to client devices such as mobile phones, as well as dual Gigabit Ethernet ports to attach the device to a backbone network. Country specific LTE/Wi-Fi standards are adopted for worldwide use in every type of train.

There is mounting space for up to five radio modules within the CyBox GW-P. The radios can operate in different standards, including LTE and its predecessors. Each LTE module can be provided with up to four SIM cards for an optimal net coverage and maximum provider flexibility. The Wi-Fi interfaces allow for connecting clients at high data rates on each interface. One of the interfaces is prepared for Wave 2 modules with multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) support to boost network efficiency and maximize data throughput.

To enhance the CyBox GW-P media server capabilities with internal storage, mounting space for a M.2 solid state drive is supplied. It is attached to the CPU’s dedicated SATA port and can be used for streaming local, on-vehicle video and audio data.

The CyBox GW-P firmware provides a convenient management interface via a webservice. Besides global setup parameters the open source software OpenWrt allows the configuration of the radio interfaces, including provider information and the login dialog, as well as the setup of the stateful firewall. The access point and router configurations as well as the management firmware can be updated remotely. Furthermore the built-in fully configurable stateful firewall and multi-VPN support with hardware-accelerated encryption ensures communication security.
