Bias-Free Language
The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

The Cisco FM4200 Fiber is a high-performance mobility-communications radio transceiver, designed to deliver fast, stable connectivity from a wayside network to any slow- or fast-moving vehicle, particularly within mission-critical market sectors and in extreme environments.
The FM4200 Fiber has received numerous railway and transport certifications, making it a popular choice for deployment on many transportation systems in the USA and worldwide, as well as in ports, intermodal yards and mining environments. Its low-latency, high-bandwidth characteristics make it the class leader in a diverse portfolio of applications, including (but not limited to) computer-based train control, real-time situation monitoring, and on-board client services (such as Wi-Fi and VoIP).
Wi-Fi on board
Your passengers expect wireless high-speed connectivity everywhere, and FLUIDITY delivers it. With our trackside technology we are able to deliver connectivity up to 100 Mbps to fast-moving vehicles and trains.
Works with FLUIDITY, our unique mobility solution
The Cisco FM4200 Fiber supports FLUIDITY, the ultimate broadband connectivity solution for high-speed vehicles. Providing up to 100 Mbps of usable throughput to vehicles traveling up to 225 mph/360 kmh is now a reality.
There is no handoff time with FLUIDITY: thanks to the seamless “make before break” approach, it maintains persistent network sessions and streams for any type of traffic.
Reduce the cost of network ownership by selecting the amount of throughput you need
Limit the cost of network ownership with FluidThrottle by selecting only the amount of throughput required. More throughput can be easily achieved by upgrading the system with software plug-ins when the traffic requirements increase. FluidThrottle makes Cisco FM cost-effective and future-ready.
Prodigy 2.0 for reliable mission-critical applications
Our Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)-based transmission protocol is built to overcome the limits of standard wireless protocols and to deliver an infrastructure with a higher level of reliability. At the base of our innovative transmission protocol is a traffic optimization algorithm that allows every Cisco FM radio to assign a specific level of priority and reliability to every packet transmitted. The result is a better, more reliable, multiservice wireless infrastructure.
Web interface configures, monitors, and troubleshoots the wireless network
The Cisco FM4200 Fiber includes the FMQuadro web interface, which allows you to configure, monitor, and troubleshoot the wireless network in real time, without any additional software. To simplify the configuration of the wireless network, the radio has a built-in spectrum analyzer and a real-time bandwidth monitoring tool.
