Huawei has won a major railway contract with Kenya, and will build a train-to-ground communications solution fully integrated with train signal systems for Kenya’s Mombasa-Nairobi railway line. Huawei will provide the GSM-R dispatching communications network as well as backbone optical transmission network, clock and synchronization system, and power and environment monitoring system to the region.
Huawei was awarded this project with its industry-leading wireless solution R&D capability in railway communications, which enables it to provide end-to-end highly reliable railway operational communications solutions to help Kenya address the challenges it faces during the Mombasa-Nairobi railway operation.
According to the timetable of the owner of the Mombasa-Nairobi railway line, the entire project will be completed in June 2017.
