Ondas Networks Signs Letter of Intent to Develop New Radio Platform for
the European Rail Market

 

WALTHAM, MA / ACCESSWIRE / June 23, 2022 / Ondas Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq: ONDS) (“Ondas” or the “Company”), a leading provider of private wireless, drone and automated data solutions through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Ondas Networks Inc. (“Ondas Networks”) and American Robotics, Inc. (“American Robotics” or “AR”), announced today that Ondas Networks signed a letter of intent with a partner to develop a new on-board locomotive radio platform for the European rail market. The new platform will support train equipment for on-board communications, which includes compatibility with the existing wayside base station network.

 

The new on-board locomotive radio platform integrates Ondas’ Next-Generation software defined radio technology, which is currently being incorporated into products under development this year for the North American and Asian locomotive markets. The new European program is anticipated to be completed in 2023 with deliveries commencing that year.

 

“This will be our first development for the European market,” stated Eric Brock, Ondas’ Chairman and CEO. “Previously we have announced programs for the North American and Asian markets, including the ATCS effort in North America and the Head of Train products for both North America and Asia. This new development program for Europe further amplifies our strategy of introducing new communication systems for the global rail market based on Ondas’ FullMAX wireless communications platform.”
