LOCOMOTIVE ELECTRONICS

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Progress Rail's EMD^® Locomotive Interface Gateway (LIG) is an innovative, integrated design solution that utilizes a state of the art Cat^® A5:N2 controller. The secure OEM platform relies on various ports that interface with proprietary networks for EM2000, Functional Integrated Railroad Electronics (FIRE) and EMDEC^®. These ports also enable the system to communicate with legacy equipment— including Positive Train Control (PTC), event recorders, fuel monitors and more. LIG's robust design off ers a common network architecture for all third party applications, no matter what vintage EMD^® locomotive. Ruggedized for the rail environment, the solution's 6 Modular Concept Unit (MCU) requires no forced air cooling and meets or exceeds industry EMI standards.
