The LRT will provide a vital transport link for the Asian Games, scheduled to be held in the country in the summer of 2018.
The contract will see the provision of infrastructure, including a switching control node, seven mast-mounted base stations (MBS), a single Network Management System (NMS), and a CeCo TRANS, a next-generation command and control system specially tailored to the requirements of the transportation market.
The solution also includes 20 STP9000 hand-portable radios, 15 SRG3900 mobile radios, and 28 railway-regulations-compliant RTP-603 onboard units, equipped with RCC-3000 8" colour touchscreen user interfaces - which Teltronic describes as being "robust and highly configurable".
"We are delighted to participate in this project, which will be Indonesia's first operational light rail transport system," said Josep Jonch - Teltronic's sales director for Transportation in APAC.
"Our solution [for] the Palembang LRT will facilitate operational efficiency and will improve the security of the passengers. The system will also allow our customer to accommodate further expansion for future requirements, such as upgrading to a hybrid TETRA-LTE solution in the future."
