APPLICATION AREA

CABLE CAR

Security, control and entertainment

Control and monitoring in public transport is a must have. With the specially developed Mobility Communication System, the ongoing operation of the cable car is optimized.

Thanks to the WiFi coverage of the entire route, employees can speak and talk to each other in individual cabins, play music or information announcements, control the lights in the individual cabins and access security cameras.

It is controlled centrally via a touch display in the control room.

CASE STUDY

CABLE CARS

In 2015, the cable railway company of a renowned ski area built a new cable car, a 3S lift from the Doppelmayr/Garaventa group. In order to provide for safety, monitoring and control of the cabins with a single system, the company opted for LOOP21’s Mobility Communication System (MCS).

  • Wi-Fi along the entire route
  • One-way and two-way intercommunication with the cable car cabins
  • Playback of music or announcements
  • Control of lighting in individual gondolas
  • CCTV cameras
  • autonomous energy supply and charging stations
  • central control via a touch display at the control room

This project was realised by LOOP21 in close cooperation with Doppelmayr/Garaventa. LOOP21’s engineers developed a solution based on state-of-the-art network technology. Specially designed communication boxes with all necessary components were integrated in the cabins. A backhaul network which establishes all connections between stations and cabins was built up via a wireless local loop. Employees of the cable railway company can control the entire system centrally from the control room.
