Onboard Wireless Access Point(AP)

Onboard Wireless Access Point (AP) for Railway Passenger Service Systems

The ZTAP series Onboard Wireless Access Point (AP) is a high-performance, industrial-grade Wi-Fi Access Point specifically designed for rail transit onboard environments.

As a key wireless access node within the onboard network architecture, it works in coordination with the Onboard Multi-Network Router and centralized access controllers to deliver stable, high-capacity wireless connectivity for passenger service systems and onboard applications.

Optimized RF transmission design ensures consistent signal coverage and reliable performance under high-mobility conditions, making the ZTAP series well suited for metro, high-speed rail, and intercity train deployments where long-term stability and system integration are critical.

Designed for Onboard Railway Applications

The ZTAP series is engineered as the core onboard Wi-Fi access point for integrated passenger service systems, supporting a wide range of railway onboard applications, including:

Onboard passenger Wi-Fi access systems

Passenger information and infotainment systems

Train operational data access for onboard terminals

Wireless connectivity for onboard service equipment

Integrated onboard communication networks for multi-carriage trains

By focusing on coverage stability and concurrent user capacity, the AP ensures continuous wireless access throughout train carriages, even in high-density passenger scenarios.

Wireless Performance Optimized for Mobile Rail Environments

This Onboard Wireless Access Point (AP) supports the latest IEEE wireless standards, providing backward compatibility while enabling higher throughput and improved efficiency for modern onboard Wi-Fi systems.

IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax (Wi-Fi 6) compliant

Concurrent dual-band operation (2.4 GHz & 5 GHz)

2×2 MIMO architecture for enhanced signal robustness

Peak wireless data rate up to 1800 Mbps

Supports up to 120 concurrent client devices

The design prioritizes stable signal coverage and reliable throughput rather than theoretical speed, ensuring consistent user experience across moving rail vehicles.

Industrial & Railway-Grade Mechanical Design

To meet the demanding requirements of rail transit applications, the ZTAP series adopts an industrial-grade, rail-compliant design:

Robust aluminum housing for enhanced durability

Passive cooling design to eliminate moving parts

Optimized for long-term onboard installation

Suitable for continuous operation in enclosed carriage environments

This construction approach improves system reliability while reducing maintenance requirements over the full lifecycle of the onboard Wi-Fi system.

Flexible Deployment: Fat AP and Fit AP Modes

The ZTAP series supports both Fat AP and Fit AP working modes, allowing flexible adaptation to different onboard network architectures:

Fit AP mode: centrally managed by an onboard Wireless Access Controller (AC)

Fat AP mode: standalone operation or cloud-based AC management

This flexibility makes the AP suitable for both centralized onboard network designs and distributed deployment scenarios across multi-carriage trains.

Comprehensive Management and Maintenance Capabilities

To support railway operation and maintenance workflows, the ZTAP series provides comprehensive management and remote maintenance functions:

Web-based configuration and management

Telnet CLI for advanced configuration

Remote software upgrades and batch upgrades

FTP and TFTP support

Remote Syslog for centralized log management

Serial port configuration and debugging

Unified management through onboard AC or cloud AC platforms

These capabilities enable efficient commissioning, centralized monitoring, and reduced maintenance workload during long-term operation.
