To improve connectivity and reliability during train journeys, VDL NPS is installing FRMCS masts along the railway on behalf of Deutsche Bahn. These masts enhance 5G coverage and provide a stable connection for both passengers and railway systems, including in tunnels, rural areas and on routes with limited coverage.
Travellers expect a reliable internet connection during their journey, while digital systems for communications, signalling and safety also depend on constant connectivity. The FRMCS masts make this possible, even at high speeds and in locations where regular mobile masts provide insufficient coverage.
VDL NPS manages the entire process: from site analysis and permits to engineering, construction and handover. Thanks to this integrated approach, VDL NPS is Deutsche Bahn’s first and only point of contact throughout the project.
Since 2019, VDL NPS has been building the infrastructure of tomorrow. With in-depth expertise in planning, project management and mast construction, we deliver complex infrastructure projects for connectivity, mobility and smart networks throughout Germany. The installation of this mast by helicopter in the German mountains highlights our capabilities: even in the most challenging locations, we combine innovation, safety and efficiency to enable reliable networks. In this way, we contribute every day to a better-connected future.
From rail corridors and urban areas to remote mountain regions: we don’t think in terms of limitations, but solutions. Thanks to our experience in constructing and expanding critical infrastructure, we ensure that projects move forward where accessibility, logistics and technical complexity intersect. With a practical approach and a focus on quality, we deliver the connections that are essential for the mobility and communications of tomorrow.
As part of the internationally operating VDL Group, we combine the strength of a robust industrial enterprise with the flexibility and commitment of a specialised infrastructure partner. By seamlessly bringing together engineering, project management and implementation, we deliver solutions that not only meet today’s requirements, but are also prepared for the growing demand for reliable, future-proof networks.
