Teleste has announced the acquisition of Mitron, which makes it one of the leading suppliers of end-to-end video and information management solutions for the rail market.

Teleste, an international technology group specialising in broadband video and data communication systems and services, believes the Finnish provider of public transportation information systems and display solutions can help it cater to growing demand among rail operators for end-to-end security solutions.

Both companies have been granted an IRIS (International Rail Industry Standard) certificate, which ensures compliance with the strictures of the rail industry.

Together Teleste and Mitron could become one of the foremost providers of complete solutions for stations, rail cars and wireless data transmission between them.

The solution supports wireless offload from rail cars as well as real-time connectivity with live video transmission between rail cars and stations, and includes advanced passenger information and CCTV systems both in rail cars and at the station.

Operators enjoy the benefits of real-time data, situational awareness and the ability to coordinate staff and resources accordingly. But the product offers a service beyond improved security; rail operators can also improve passenger services through live on-board entertainment, among other things.
