Complete Control with Universal Switch Controller (USC™)

For Immediate Release 

FAIRPORT, NY – August 31, 2005. RailComm's Universal Switch Controller (USC™) provides complete control of any yard power switch. This retrofit product easily interfaces to your installed base of power switch machines, providing remote control capabilities to all equipped power switches from any location in the yard. RailComm provides several remote controllers to match the operating requirements of the railroad or passenger rail operation.

Now your power switch can be remotely controlled from either a keypad on your voice radio (handheld or locomotive), from a RailComm outdoor-rated control panel, or from RailComm’s DOC® (Domain Operations Controller) server-based platform. This means no more walking from switch to switch. The RailComm USC™ is the complete solution for yard automation and includes machine control, communications, switch protection device, and optional switch position LED indicator. RailComm USC™ can also be adapted to blue flag and derail devices. Flat yard switching with "Hump-like Productivity" is now possible with RailComm USC™.
