OPTIMIZE COMMUNICATIONS AND CONTROL ON THE MOVE
Kinetic Mesh® Network for Railways
Whether managing train lines in densely populated cities or transporting cargo across long distances, rail operators are recognizing the safety and security gains that real-time vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications can provide.
Railways have a great history with transportation, and today’s standards are still used for moving both passengers and cargo. With ever-evolving technology, it is crucial to have a reliable mode of communication between trains and command centers. Rajant Kinetic Mesh® allows railways to become more reliable, safe, and efficient by allowing connectivity between command centers and trains that allow operators to properly send information and receive information on-the-go.

Kinetic Mesh® network for railways
Track Rail Assets with Ease Over Vast Areas
In a Rajant Kinetic Mesh® network, every node can be mobile, providing every transportation asset that traverses or resides in the network with robust, high-bandwidth mobile connectivity. For railroads, this means that command centers can instantly access the analytical insights from applications running on each train—monitoring everything from equipment health to speed and location, wheel sensors and freight status, fuel consumption, traffic optimization and more.
Rajant Kinetic Mesh® network for railways provides both linear functionality and train-to-track side hand off, with a ‘Make-Make-Make-Never-Break’ connectivity paradigm that ensures no loss in communication, even when traveling through remote terrains. The network is capable of any-node to any-node communications, allowing it to work readily with satellite, peer-to-peer (P2P) wireless, or wired links.
Increase Safety and Improve Passenger Experience
From increasing personnel productivity to improving the safety of both passengers and freight, Rajant Kinetic Mesh® network for railways enables transportation operators to provide a modern mode of transportation for their on-board customers to enjoy while enhancing their competitive advantage in the process.
The Kinetic Mesh® network even gives train and subway operators the ability to load digital content based on their location along the route line, assisting to offset the costs of important safety and security initiatives with paid advertising that has high relevancy to passengers.
Assisting the entire team with the validation of the installation, configuration, and ramp-up of the testing phase was a highly rewarding experience. Through this project, I gained valuable insights into rail operations, which became a key learning opportunity for me. Additionally, I contributed to the delivery of training during the implementation phase, as part of the Sales Engineering team’s responsibilities.

As a truly disruptive technology, Rajant Kinetic Mesh has delivered several very large project wins for AIRadio.
Koral Turkan
AIRadio VP Sales and Business Development
We had to have backhaul capability and had to have capacity injection capability at multiple sites without building a whole lot of infrastructure to support that, which isn’t possible with traditional Wi-Fi solutions.
David Rumore
Executive Vice President, Future Technologies
Participating in the development of this technology, integrating all partners and products with the operation of our railroad. In MRS, we are enabling the trains length expansion from 1,500m to 3,000m and increase the railroad’s capacity through this solution—something that fills us with pride. We believe this is a true turning point, breaking technological paradigms in railway telecommunications, especially in critical rail regions with tunnels and areas with challenging geography. Seeing innovation come to life and deliver real value reinforces the importance of believing in the transformative potential of purpose-driven engineering.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Rajant Kinetic Mesh® technology?
Rajant Kinetic Mesh® is an Intelligent Edge networking technology designed for dynamic, mobile environments where traditional fixed infrastructure falls short.
Unlike conventional wireless systems, it enables continuous, adaptive connectivity across moving assets, people, and devices. Powering Industrial AI applications that demand resilience, low latency, and real-time decision-making.
How do Rajant’s BreadCrumb® wireless nodes enhance network connectivity?
Rajant’s BreadCrumb® nodes are the building blocks of a self-forming, self-healing Kinetic Mesh® network.
Each node communicates directly with every other, creating a web of redundant, high-throughput connections that ensure uninterrupted communication, even when conditions change or assets move.
This decentralized design eliminates single points of failure, maximizing uptime and mobility.
InstaMesh® vs. conventional point-to-point connections.
Conventional point-to-point networks depend on fixed links that can break under motion or interference.
Rajant’s InstaMesh® routing protocol dynamically reroutes traffic in real time, automatically choosing the fastest, most reliable path.
The result: continuous, mobile, and intelligent connectivity for operations that never stop moving.
What are the benefits of Rajant’s InstaMesh® for IIoT applications?
For Industrial IoT environments, InstaMesh® provides the low-latency, adaptive communication required to keep machines, sensors, and AI systems synchronized.
