Nokia has announced that the Société du Grand Paris (SGP), will deploy its 5G-ready IP/MPLS multiservice, mobile core and Radio Access Network (RAN) solutions to support the implementation of four automated train lines that link 200 kilometres of Paris and up to 2 million passengers a day.
The Grand Paris Express, the future metro of Greater Paris, is one of the largest metro rail projects in Europe. With 200 kilometres of rail network, the project includes the creation of four new lines (15, 16, 17 and 18) around Paris, the extension of line 14, the construction of 68 new metro stations and the development of new neighbourhoods around these future urban centres.
The Nokia solutions include a state-of-the-art, multi-service IP/MPLS high-speed network to support all Grand Paris Express operational and maintenance requirements. The private mobile radio solution is designed for operational communications and indoor/outdoor connectivity across all Grand Paris Express stations, lines and depots. Mission-critical application requirements across the four lines will be supported by the multi-service IP/MPLS network.
The highly-secure IP/MPLS communications network will operate as a powerful, high-speed backbone that increases operational efficiency, enhances safety and improves the passenger experience.
