In the high-stakes world of rail transportation, every second counts — and every system matters. Black Box® delivers innovative control room solutions designed to keep people safe, operations resilient, and critical infrastructure running smoothly. Whether you’re managing a national rail grid or a regional metro system, our technologies ensure that your teams are always connected, responsive, and in control.
Our platform — built around Emerald® IP KVM and Boxilla® centralized management — provides the reliability and flexibility you need to run a safer, smarter, and more efficient rail operation.
With real-time access to all critical systems and data, Black Box solutions empower operators to detect, respond to, and prevent incidents that could compromise safety. Built for 24/7 uptime, our infrastructure is engineered for resilience under pressure.
Gain full environmental awareness across your network. Whether you're managing cameras, data feeds, or control systems, our solutions deliver ultra-low latency and instant switching so you can act without delay.
Protect your rail systems with encrypted, fail-safe data transmission. Our architecture supports secure access to sensitive system and removes desk servers, reducing the risk of physical attacks and cyberthreats, and ensuring compliance with critical infrastructure standards.
Streamline rail traffic control and facility oversight through centralized command centers. Interconnect multiple systems in each control room. Operators can view multiple sources on fewer screens, prioritize alerts, and optimize resource deployment in real time. Eliminate large monitor setups and local servers that have negative impacts on heat dissipation and power consumption.
Enable teamwork and collaboration between large amounts of operators and authorities at multiple locations. Whether across departments, cities, or countries, our platform enables unified workflows and secure information sharing. Perfect for regional authorities managing shared rail assets or transit systems.
Manage complex environments from one screen. From station-level consoles to national control hubs, Black Box helps you scale with confidence — without sacrificing control.
Adapt to change without rebuilding your infrastructure. Our systems integrate with both legacy equipment and next-gen technologies, ensuring your investment lasts well into the future. Prepare systems for AI integration to optimize automation and workflows. When your budget requires cost-efficient solutions, less components can do more. Multisource, multiview allow new workflows to process more data per operator.
Visualize large video walls, camera views, and monitor numerous systems at the desktop. With features like Single Sign-On (SSO), multisource viewing, reduced monitor count, and centralized switching, our solutions eliminate bottlenecks and reduce cognitive load for operators — allowing them to focus on mission-critical decisions. Provide ergonomically-healthy operator workspaces.
No need to tear down and replace. Black Box® seamlessly bridges the old and the new, supporting hybrid environments that include physical, virtual, and cloud-based systems. Mix legacy and new systems including virtual machines.
Across Europe and Asia, leading transportation authorities are already experiencing the benefits of Black Box® solutions. Our technology is powering control rooms for:
