Kontron User Forum Highlights IWF between MCX and GSM-R

Last week in Lippstadt, Germany: The first MCx user forum for Kontron Transportation's Secondary Lines customers took place.

Last week, railway experts from Secondary Lines in Germany and Kontron Transportation MCx/FRMCS experts met to discuss new applications in a user forum.

System demos, expert presentations as well as a lively exchange of experiences were on the agenda. There was also an outlook on future applications and the status of standardization with regards to FRMCS.

The highlight during the event were interworking calls via IWF between MCx and several GSM-R live networks and public numbers.

"The MCx user forum for Secondary Lines was characterized by the high practical relevance and the exchange of information between users and developers as well as between the users themselves", says Michael Lorenz, event initiator and Sales Manager for Secondary Lines.
