   Vienna, 9 July 2026 –Kontron Transportation is modernizing the existing
   railway communications  core network on behalf of Infraestruturas de
   Portugal, the Portuguese Railways.

   The award represents an important milestone for Kontron Transportation in
   Portugal and reinforces the company’s ability to deliver future-ready,
   mission-critical railway communication solutions in a highly competitive
   market. Kontron will become the new supplier of radio communication
   infrastructure, representing an important building block in supporting the
   continued evolution toward FRMCS (Future Railway Mobile Communication
   System).

   The project scope includes the supply, installation, configuration,
   testing, commissioning and migration of the Kontron solution, along with
   training, documentation, maintenance and operational support. To ensure a
   smooth and efficient transition, the new system will be integrated with
   the existing infrastructure and applications.

   With this contract award, Kontron Transportation further strengthens its
   position in the Portuguese railway market and expands its role in the
   modernization of railway communication networks. The project also creates
   new opportunities to showcase Kontron’s broader portfolio in the access
   domain and to support customers on their path toward next-generation
   communication technologies.

   “We are proud to support the modernization of the Portuguese railway
   communication infrastructure. This project underlines our commitment to
   delivering reliable and future-ready communication systems for
   mission-critical railway operations”, says Richard Neussl, Managing
   Director Kontron Transportation.
