Maven Wireless won its largest contract in France, worth approximately 8MSEK, for delivery of a critical communication system to a third metro line in Toulouse, France’ fourth largest city, together with a local system integrator.
The system will be installed at Toulouse's third metro line ahead of its planned opening in 2028. The 26.7 kilometer route will feature 21 stations, with 80% of the line running underground. Uninterrupted wireless coverage in such critical environments is absolutely essential for both operational continuity and public safety.
Maven Wireless system supports both existing Tetrapol, and the Future Radio Network (FNR), that is used by police, military, firefighters and rescue teams, and manages both existing frequency bands as well as the new 4G/5G PPDR frequency band in the same product. The Future Radio Network (FRN) will provide services with a shared priority, secure, and high-speed communication system leveraging the best digital technologies and offering a high level of resilience in crisis situations.
“France is one of the largest and most advanced DAS markets in Europe with growing demands for both existing critical communication solutions as well as new digital high speed networks. The metro segment is also a large complex use case where Maven Wireless technology leadership fits well, which makes this agreement a strategically important milestone for Maven Wireless in several dimensions” says Anders Olin, CEO for Maven Wireless.
