Juniper Networks, a leader in secure AI-driven networks, has announced that\u00a0Airport Railroad Express\u00a0(AREX), a commuter railway connecting South Korea\u2019s international airports to its capital city, has selected Juniper Networks\u2019 solutions for its upgrade to a modern all-IP based communications network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
AREX is South Korea\u2019s first domestic railway to feature an all-IP based communications network that integrates wired and wireless networks, enabling efficient network deployment as well as strengthened security and stability through MPLS VPN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As an important international hub for business and tourism, having efficient transportation infrastructure between the country\u2019s busy ports of entry and the metro urban centers is crucial. Particularly important is connectivity to-and-from Incheon International Airport (ICN), which has consistently been rated as one of the best and busiest airports in the world, and which has seen continued growth in traffic as one of the largest international gateways into Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Initially launched as a link between ICN and Gimpo International Airport, AREX was expanded directly to Seoul Station in the capital in 2010 and has been providing safe, seamless and convenient connectivity for travellers ever since. With ICN\u2019s continued growth, AREX was looking to further strengthen the railway\u2019s operational efficiency and to keep up with its growing network infrastructure needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A major priority was the upgrade of its communication network which plays a vital role in ensuring uninterrupted data transmissions to the railway\u2019s numerous technological systems. This includes systems across signalling, supervisory control and data acquisition, video surveillance and wired\/wireless networks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Juniper Networks was identified and selected for the upgrade \u2013 which was to build out a modern IP\/MPLS communications network using AI-driven solutions \u2013 improving the stability of AREX\u2019s mission-critical systems while supporting the delivery of reliable train services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ki Byung Chai, Country Manager, Korea, Juniper Networks, said:\u201cA modernized railway communication network has a direct impact on the well-being of commuters and plays a vital role in maintaining operational efficiency and safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe are proud that our EX Series switches driven by Juniper Mist AI and MX Series routers are at the heart of Airport Rail Road Express\u2019 network and provide the foundation for enhanced customer satisfaction and uncompromised safety standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cJuniper Networks remains committed to helping customers such as AREX in their AI-driven enterprise journey and achieve their strategic goals in the most seamless way possible.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
