Collaborating with Deutsche Bahn to Accelerate the Growth and Adoption of IoT

Deutsche Bahn (Germany)

Deutsche Bahn, Europe’s largest railway operator, and rail infrastructure owner has been leading innovation in the railway industry with IoT technology solutions supported by TEKTELIC. TEKTELIC is providing a product line of the Best-in-Class KONA Gateways in DB’s corporate facilities, and the partnership has been a key driver for the implementation of the Basic Station packet forwarder on these gateways to support DB’s preferred interface to the Network Server. DB has been leveraging the IoT network to test many applications including asset tracking and remote asset monitoring.

Deutsche Bahn selected TEKTELIC as its IoT gateway provider thanks to its Always-on Connectivity, Carrier Grade design and approach to providing customers with the lowest Total Cost of Ownership for their LoRaWAN® networks. The KONA Gateways are managed on TEKTELIC’s customized KONA Element Operations, Administration and Management server, a comprehensive tool allowing operators to configure, monitor and optimize all of the Gateways in their network from a single node.

This results in IoT acceleration and expediency across all industries. Whether the deployment is one of TEKTELIC’s available end-to-end solutions or a custom-built solution, there will be a solution to address the exact data-driven connectivity requirements.
