Elevating AV Capabilities for Modern Transit Systems
The transportation sector is undergoing rapid digital transformation, demanding AV solutions that are reliable, secure, and scalable across some of the most challenging deployment environments imaginable. XLink-ONE™’s innovative HDMI 2.1 over IP technology is uniquely suited to address these challenges, offering unparalleled performance across trains, MRT networks, maritime vessels, airports, and bus fleets - wherever passengers need information and operators need visibility.
Transportation AV infrastructure faces a unique combination of technical constraints: extreme electromagnetic interference from traction motors and power systems, physically confined installation spaces, the need to maintain continuous operation across extended service lives, and the requirement to serve both passenger-facing information systems and operational safety monitoring from a single integrated platform. XLink-ONE™ addresses each of these challenges through its dual Cat-5e/fiber architecture, compact device form factors, and EMI-immune fiber transmission option.
01
Passenger Information and Entertainment Systems
XLink-ONE™ delivers high-quality 4K@144Hz and 8K@30Hz video to display screens across transit systems, supporting crisp and clear visuals for passenger information, entertainment, and advertising. Its ability to distribute signals through commodity Ethernet switches ensures cost-effective deployment across buses, trains, and maritime vessels. Passengers enjoy uninterrupted entertainment, real-time travel updates, and dynamic content - all delivered with ultra-low latency.
02
Surveillance and Security Integration
Modern transportation systems rely on extensive surveillance for safety and operational efficiency. XLink-ONE™ supports UVC-to-HDMI integration, enabling high-definition video feeds from multiple cameras to be centralised and monitored in real-time. AES-256 encryption ensures that all video and data transmissions remain secure, protecting sensitive operational information and passenger safety data from unauthorised access.
03
Operational Control Centres
Transportation control centres require seamless access to real-time data and visuals for effective decision-making. XLink-ONE™’s support for multi-view and synchronised video walls allows operators to monitor multiple feeds simultaneously, ensuring quick and informed responses to incidents. Low-latency performance ensures critical updates are received without delay - whether monitoring a single station or an entire network.
04
Vehicle-to-Vehicle and Infrastructure Communication
XLink-ONE™ facilitates robust AV communication between vehicles and infrastructure - crucial for connected transit systems and autonomous vehicle operations. Its bidirectional data transmission and USB over IP enable seamless exchange of control signals and diagnostics, improving system reliability and enabling fleet management teams to access vehicle systems remotely without physical intervention.
05
Cost-Effective Scalability over IP and Fiber
XLink-ONE™ not only enables over-IP distribution through Cat-5e cables and low-cost Ethernet switches, but also supports non-compressed HDMI 2.1 signals including 8K resolution over fiber. This makes it ideal for overcoming the electronic interface limitations of environments demanding ultra-high-quality transmission - such as mass transit systems like high-speed trains and maritime vessels. Flexibility, scalability, and performance combine in a single platform.
06
Secure Content and Data Sharing
With encrypted A/V and data transmission via AES-256, XLink-ONE™ ensures secure communication of sensitive operational information, passenger data, and classified communications. Only authorised personnel can access the system, meeting stringent compliance standards for security, privacy, and data protection applicable across both public and private transportation sectors.
