Railways
Travel at the speed of life
Mainline and metro transit railways provide reliable, safe, on-time, journeys for millions of people and products every day - playing a critical role in our communities and our economies. Now, with a transformed, digital railway, you can deliver new and fully connected rail experiences. With a reliable, secure communications network at work for you, you can benefit from new levels of “connectedness” and automation – while reducing costs, improving efficiency and enhancing overall service. With powerful communications, you can achieve the full opportunities of industrial IoT and advanced analytics – helping you predictively maintain your operations, intelligently manage assets and automate intelligence. Discover how Nokia can help you transform your digital railway and see what it means to travel at the speed of life.
Nokia Bell Labs Future X for industries architecture
