Metro Station Environment Monitoring
The InHand ISM2008D managed switches form a reliable ring network in the metro station that connects all the PLCs and I/O nodes to conduct comprehensive monitoring of the station?s environment and ensuring security.
Background
Metro systems, the veins of modern metropolises, have changed the way of urban transit. The construction and operation of metro systems brought about good business opportunities.But accidents happen, casualties in metro accidents have increased significantly in recent years. Metro construction and operation companies need up-to-date safety management means and technologies to prevent accidents and to minimize casualties when they happen. A comprehensive metro station environment monitoring solution is developed by Schneider Electric to provide real-time monitoring of the environment of metro stations, pre-alert to accidents and emergencies, and safety protection of the metro system. InHand Networks is honored to contribute a part in this solution.
