The CeCoTRANS dispatch system includes the incorporation of dynamic metro line schematics in order to enhance the operation of driverless trains. The PowerTrunk system was provided through MCS Digital of Melbourne, Australia, and MCS Digital was recently recognized for “Best Use of Critical Communications in Transport” by the International Critical Communications Awards (ICCA) for its accomplishments on the project.
“To be recognized on the international stage for the successful delivery of a world-class project in the critical communications space is truly gratifying,” said MCS Digital Managing Director Jane Perton. “This award is a wonderful recognition of the efforts of the MCS Digital team and our partners PowerTrunk in the U.S. and Teltronic in Spain. I am so proud of the team, and it was truly a global effort.”
“We are delighted that PowerTrunk’s customer, MCS Digital, has received this prestigious award,” said PowerTrunk CEO Jose Martin. “The TETRA network infrastructure and radio terminals for the project are manufactured by PowerTrunk’s parent companies Teltronic S.A.U. and U.K.-based Sepura Ltd. TETRA was selected for the metro radio network due to its outstanding speech quality, background noise cancelation and superior data communications capabilities.”
