Train manufacturers, rail operators, and mass transit systems see the new possibilities that digitalization offers, from accelerating efficiency to improving the passenger experience. However, digitalization, combined with the dynamic and moving environments of trains, increases cybersecurity risks. At the same time, rail operators face space constraints, legacy systems, and dynamic network topologies, all of which complicate security challenges. To succeed in today's digital world, rail operators need a secure network that can withstand the unique environmental challenges of rail rolling stock, including shocks, vibrations, temperature fluctuations, electromagnetic and radio frequency interference (EMI/RFI), and more.
The Hirschmann EAGLE40-6M offers powerful features that enable railway organizations to overcome current security complexities:
It provides the ability to perform DPI on industrial communication protocols used in a railway rolling stock environment. It offers
unique rolling stock certifications that meet essential transport industry standards, European (EN) standards, and international regulations. Its
multicast management capabilities allow it to monitor onboard networks and enforce rule sets to ensure all communications are reliable, traceable, and secure.
CylusOne interoperability adds multi-layered cybersecurity to the rolling stock fleet, trains, and individual cars, guaranteeing security, availability, and regulatory compliance.
The Hirschmann EAGLE40-6M meets essential railway rolling stock standards, including EN 50121-3-2, EN 50121-4, EN 50155, EN 55032, EN 55035, and EN 45545-2 HL3, for shock resistance, operating temperature, electromagnetic interference, vibration, fire resistance, and other conditions. Furthermore, the firewall complies with numerous international and industry standards, such as UN Economic Commission for Europe (ECE) R118, US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Part 15 Class A, and DB-Deutsche Bahn EMV06, in addition to meeting the requirements of China Compulsory Certification (CCC), Enterprise Architecture (EA), and the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive.
