The Protection Technology Group Expands Website to Provide Rail Transportation Solutions

Monday, June 20, 2011
Protection Technology Group (PTG) announces the expansion of its market section within www.ProtectionGroup.com to provide global state-of-the-art rail market solutions with reliable surge protection that meet and exceed industry requirements and are engineered to AREMA standards.

The rail transportation section of www.ProtectionGroup.com features railway network solutions, engineering capabilities, resources specific to Positive Train Control (PTC), as well as a full product catalog searchable by both rail application and technology type.

“By further developing our railway market pages, our online users are able to easily navigate through our breadth of PolyPhaser and Transtector products designed specifically for railway critical electronic protection. Through these pages we provide visitors valuable resources such as whitepapers, information on Positive Train Control (PTC) and links to our distribution partners, “said Jim Nelson, Vice President of Sales and Marketing.

Viewers can engage in an interactive feature, found at www.ProtectionGroup.com/Markets/Rail-Transportation, which showcases our full line of surge protection solutions. “Customers can select between a communication tower, bungalow, train, crossing signals or high speed locomotive to view interactive application drawings that highlight the protection needs for each system. Each link then navigates users to the applicable surge protection product that best fits their needs”, said Linda Johnson, Director of Marketing.

Creating the specific rail transportation section was driven by the ability to provide market specific information while offering a full online product catalog certified to AREMA standards. The online catalog includes RF, AC, DC, high-speed data and signal protection, EMP hardening, grounding accessories, integrated cabinets and power distribution units. From the GPS Satellite to the bungalow, the Protection Technology Group has a protection solution to protect any railway system.
