2. We create ultra-reliable communication systems
providing information to the public, key staff and the
emergency services.
As well as comprehensive customer information and public
address systems, we develop solutions that can monitor
environmental data or control security infrastructure.
The Swiss trains run on time. They use TDM.

4. Rail
Our wide experience in communications systems for railways dates from our pioneering
design of the Help Point in 1997 which is now adopted on networks from London to Sydney.
However, our expertise goes way beyond the platform; creating integrated systems that
put a railway operator at the heart of communications, coordinating locomotive drivers,
emergency services, track maintenance, CCTV and customer information systems. We are
flexible in our approach to projects providing turnkey, whole-life services whilst also
offering specific elements as part of larger projects including the supply, installation and
maintenance of our equipment.
Road
Today’s motorways and highways are dangerous environments where a rapid response to
a situation is often critical. Over 90% of the Swiss road network depends on our roadside
emergency telephones which connect stranded motorists with a central office. Our system
can allow base operators not just to speak directly to the roadside caller but to observe the
situation via remote control CCTV.The operator is able to connect to the emergency services
via the TETRA network and even place them in direct contact with the motorist.
Ports
We can create fully integrated communications systems that allow port operators to
remotely control and coordinate complex working environments. Our versatile systems are
able to operate passenger information and public address systems as well as facilitating
communications between dockside managers, access points and shipping. No two ports are
identical but in collaborating with port operators we can provide a communications system
which meets the precise needs of a given location.
Airports
Handling high volume passenger flow is a key part of the TDM portfolio. We meet the
need for high vigilance in security conscious environments and the requirement for reliable
customer information from car park to airport gate. We create site specific systems which
provide a communications network that puts a central operator in control of the passenger
information as well as the ability to coordinate airside engineers and emergency services.
Energy
For large industrial complexes such as oil refineries and gas terminals, we offer central
management of access points, public address systems and CCTV as well as remote
environmental monitoring such as fire detection and accompanying alarm systems. This
enables a high level of security to be maintained in large high risk areas.
Public Safety
Our leading edge technology operates very effectively to maintain public safety in urban
city centres. As well as providing a network of public information Help Points we are also
able to install monitoring systems that can detect environmental events such as landslides,
fire, and flood which can be combined with a public address system to play pre-recorded
emergency warnings. Central operators can also coordinate emergency services while
monitoring situations on CCTV.
Education
Our solutions offer possibilities for enormously simplifying large building and campus
infrastructures thereby vastly improving reliability, whilst significantly bringing down
whole-life costs. We offer a system which is able to dispatch security staff, monitor fire
sensors, control CCTV, make campus-wide announcements and be used as WiFi hotspots.
Our technology is developed in-house by our team of
highly skilled engineers.
5. TDM was chosen to deliver our GSM-R Operational Telecom
system for the Channel Tunnel, the longest undersea tunnel
in the world linking the UK with France and serving over 20
million people a year. Our GSM-R FTS Dispatching System for
the Rail and Terminal Control Centre consists of a two core
geo-redundant system which has been integrated into both UK
and French control centres with 46 dispatcher workplaces.
TDM supplies an SOS help point network to 90% of Swiss
Roads. Fully integrated with legacy systems it combines fire
extinguisher sensors that notify the central operator when a fire
extinguisher is removed in a tunnel so that emergency services
can be notified and announcements made by PA system.
TDM developed a solution for Swiss Rail that enabled them
to become the first rail company in Europe to deploy live train
information to passengers via text message, internet and public
address system. The information is prepared centrally and
the content is consistent irrespective of the delivery location
or medium.
TDM was chosen to deliver our range of communication and
security solutions to the longest rail tunnel in the world, the
AlpTransit Gotthard Tunnel in the Swiss Alps which is due for
completion in 2016.Our in-house operations team have delivered
2 central NIS servers, over 400 Emergency Help Points, 15 VoIP
phones and 4 Public Address Systems which will enhance the
communication and security in the record breaking 57 km tunnel.
South West Trains is one of many UK rail operators that depend
on the TDM range of integrated customer information and
control systems. We have installed over 370 Help Points, CCTV
monitoring and the connection of a central operator.
TDM delivers a full range of passenger information, with CCTV,
over 200 Help Points and public address system to the UK’s
Southern network including Clapham Junction which handles
more passengers than any rail hub in Europe. As well as the design
of the system we also install and maintain all of our equipment.
Our technology operates across industries, networks
and international boundaries.
