DSB was looking for a way to integrate security, surveillance, passenger counting and infotainment technologies in an in-carriage IP-network solution.

DSB also wanted to ensure that the system installed complied with EN50155, including its prohibition on the use of fans. Also, as a precautionary measure EN50155 suggests using protective coatings for PCBs in electronic products to counteract corrosive atmospheres that are often present in railroad applications.

The networking system also needed to be powered from an auxiliary 110V DC system, which is present in each coach. DSB turned to GarrettCom and the 6KQ Managed Ethernet switches to provide the networking solution.
