NIS RAIL

NIS-Rail is a fully IP-based communication system that offers the highest level of stability and reliability thanks to its fully- meshed concept. Easily integrated into existing infrastructures, NIS enables easy migration to IP and can be flexibly scaled to match the customer's requirements.

All of this makes NIS the ideal IP-based operator telecommunication system for national and international rail operators.
