Realize Savings and Improve Rail Safety
Providing no-fail, system-wide communications is one aspect of a dispatching solution. By using a COTS-based (commercial off-the-shelf) hardware platform in our pure IP console system, railroads can leverage non-proprietary PC, server, and IP networking equipment, which ensures business continuity, and provides a scalable system that delivers safe, efficient operations at significant savings over legacy technologies.
Supports Common Radio & Telephony Interfaces
- Standard analog FM
- NXDN for both conventional and trunked modes
- DMR Tiers II & III
- MOTOTRBO complete system suite
- P25 for both conventional and trunked modes
- Traditional and IP-based PBXs
Proven Performance
With failure-proof performance and profit-enhancing productivity, the Scout family improves operational efficiency and keeps workers, equipment, and railways safe. That’s why today, most railroad networks choose Scout dispatch consoles, including:
- 70% of Class I railroads in North America
- Hundreds of short-line, regional, and transit railroads in the United States
- All the leading freight railroads in Mexico and South America
Safety
Safety is the top-priority of all freight and transit railroad operations, and clear communication is the key to achieving and maintaining safe operational environments. From a Scout console, your dispatchers can safely and efficiently manage:
- Locomotive and track side two-way radio communications to the dispatch center.
- Yard, intermodal, station and maintenance facilities activity
- Disaster recovery operations
