SAO PAULO, BRAZIL: Comba Telecom Systems Holdings Ltd, a leading wireless solutions provider, has been selected to supply a comprehensive wireless solution to enable ubiquitous mobile communications for Brazil's Rio de Janeiro Metro mass-transit railway network.
With 33 stations covering 42 kilometers, the Metro Rio serves the city of Rio de Janeiro and carries on average, more than half a million passengers per day and is a key transportation system for the city.
