Lilee Systems Introduces Next Generation Communications System

Lilee Systems announced Jan. 20 the availability of its TransAir LMS-2450 series. Based on the newly released LileeOS 2.8 platform, the new locomotive messaging and application server (LMS) series gives freight and passenger rail operators the ability to achieve positive train control (PTC) compliance for safety and speed enforcement, as well as manage other business data without having to invest in additional software or hardware for what is typically limited onboard cabinet space. 

The LMS-2450 represents the next evolution of Lilee's advanced communications system for the transportation industry, supporting mobile and fixed applications in hi-rail, locomotive and bus environments. Based on the LileeOS 2.8 platform, the LMS-2450 family provides a solution that delivers connectivity and an x86 application engine that allows users to load any business or PTC applications.

"With the variety of wireless and wired networking options available, implementing a communications system that can integrate multiple components to deliver seamless connectivity is a challenge," said Loring Wirbel, senior analyst for The Linley Group. "Solutions such as Lilee Systems' LMS-2450 are evolving to achieve greater compatability among disparate tools, making it easier, more reliable and efficient to maintain connectivity across environments while tailored to the unique requirements of a given industry."
