MISSISSAUGA, Ontario, Canada-Teklogix International Inc. was awarded a contract by Montreal-based Canadian National Railways to provide it with narrowband wireless data communication networks.
The networks will include the Ethernet Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol connectivity and 85 vehicle-mounted data terminals. They will be installed at Canadian National Railways’ intermodal sites in Vancouver, Bampton and Montreal.
The company’s wireless communication technology allows yard vehicles such as cranes and front loaders to access work assignments through terminals and to report back to the host computer.
