The increased demand for on board Wi-Fi in our digital age, and the current enduring lack of rail connectivity, has put strain on rail operators who are struggling to keep up with their customers’ expectations. This impacts both customer satisfaction and wider economic growth and productivity, including the achievement of net zero objectives. Therefore, improving rail connectivity is crucial in catalysing a modal shift in encouraging passengers back on the railways, as well as catering to the increased preference for out-of-town living.
However, where demand and necessity are at an all-time high, on-board Wi-Fi remains a luxury at large.
That is why evo-rail’s mission lies at the centre of addressing this lack of rail connectivity. Our ‘rail-5G’ is a multi-gigabit Wi-Fi solution that guarantees constant and ultrafast Wi-Fi on your journey, ensuring innovation that shapes the future of a railway fit for the modern passenger.
The first of its kind, our solution will ensure that customers can enjoy unprecedented levels of connectivity, competing with the speed we are used to experiencing at home or at work. This means passenger access to over 1GB of continuous connectivity to enjoy activities like videoconferencing, 3D gaming, watching live sports, streaming and superfast downloads from any device. All while travelling by train.
Designed specifically for the railways by rail experts, evo-rail’s rail-5G provides a sustainable and cost-effective solution which re-imagines on-board connectivity to deliver a customer focused service.
As part of our developing process, and to bring to life the transformation of the rail journey experience, we have spoken to business owners, train operators and rail users across Europe. We’re proud to finally present ‘Portraits of Rail-5G’, a series of case studies highlighting how ultrafast, consistent Wi-Fi on trains would transform the way people travel and work for the better.
