Scalable range for optimal fit

The CPU6000 Series offers a scalable selection of processing options, from high performance multicore units to cost optimised single core modules. With multiple performance variants, you can select exactly the processing capability each system requires. This avoids unnecessary cost or over specification while ensuring the system remains efficient, scalable and well matched to the requirements of different train designs.

CRA Ready with cybersecurity compliance

The CPU6000 Series is designed in accordance with the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), Regulation (EU) 2024/2847, ensuring compliance with the latest European cybersecurity standards.

It also meets with railway-specific requirements defined in the upcoming IEC 63452, supporting up to Security Level 2.

The architecture provides the capability to run intrusion detection agent software, enabling proactive threat monitoring and enhanced system protection.

A cryptographically verified secure-boot chain acts as a foundational security mechanism, ensuring that only trusted, manufacturer-approved software runs on a device.
