system and other equipment to the nearest terminal block, the internal cable connection of the locomotive. Custom production takes place at the LAPP facility in

Otrokovice. This is the production of the

CABLE IRCK cable harness to customer

specification. This harness contains multicore shielded cables with corresponding

fire resistance according to EN 45545, intended for signal transmission. The cables

The company's main product in the area

of security systems is the MIREL VZ1 train

protection system, which is currently in

operation on lines in Slovakia, the Czech

Republic, Hungary and Poland. The extension module of the MIREL VZ1 train

protection system is the MIREL STB functional gateway, which includes the

ÖLFLEX® CONNECT cable assembly from

LAPP.

The MIREL train protection system is intended for monitoring driver vigilance,

the transmission of information from

trackside to the signal repeater, the monitoring of maximum speed with regard to

the maximum design speed of the traction

unit, determining the speed of the train

unit, and receiving information from the

track infrastructure. The basic function of

the MIREL STB gateway is to provide an

interface between the basic unit of the

MIREL VZ1 train protection system and

the ETCS on-board device, the European

train protection system.

LAPP supplies the cable assembly used

to connect the MIREL VZ1 train protection

the ends. The product also includes cable

glands and D-SUB connectors. The finished product is completely ready for

mounting on the MIREL system without

the need for further modifications.
