<strong>Siemens</strong> <strong><strong>Rail</strong>Com</strong> <strong>Manager</strong><br />
<strong>Optimizing</strong> <strong>Rail</strong> <strong>Communication</strong><br />
<strong>Siemens</strong> <strong><strong>Rail</strong>Com</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> (RCM) offers a straightforward solu-<br />
tion to a complex task. <strong><strong>Rail</strong>Com</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> is the modular product<br />
platform that adapts easily to your specific needs. It integrates<br />
multiple communication subsystems into one coherent network<br />
controlled by one graphical interface.<br />
<strong>Rail</strong>Info <strong>Manager</strong><br />
Automated, real time passenger information<br />
distributed over public address (PA) systems,<br />
customer information screens (CIS) and<br />
information point intercoms.<br />
<strong>Rail</strong>Security <strong>Manager</strong><br />
Passenger stations monitored remotely via closed<br />
circuit television (CCTV), train-to-wayside video<br />
supervision, help point intercom (HPI) facilities,<br />
integrated alarm sensors, intelligent video processing<br />
and emergency management systems.<br />
<strong>Rail</strong>Control <strong>Manager</strong><br />
Asset monitoring, supervisory control and data<br />
acquisition (SCADA), life-cycle management, voiceover-IP,<br />
radio systems and network management:<br />
Service Platform <strong>Siemens</strong> <strong><strong>Rail</strong>Com</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> is an<br />
integrated system for controlling the communica-<br />
tion network and equipment used in public transport<br />
environments.<br />
Functional Overview<br />
Multi-service railway communication networks<br />
typically include various subnetworks to support<br />
passenger information dissemination, security and<br />
rail control applications. <strong><strong>Rail</strong>Com</strong> <strong>Manager</strong> unifies<br />
these sub-networks and addresses each of these<br />
applications through functional modules. Train<br />
control functions are usually centralized within the<br />
Operations and Control Center (OCC) to facilitate<br />
immediate response and interaction. To enhance<br />
system integrity, both hardware and software components<br />
of RCM (and of transit control networks, in<br />
general) are distributed to the stations so they can<br />
continue to provide crucial communication services<br />
in the event of backbone network failure.<br />
