Ribbon Communications has successfully deployed a critical network upgrade for LTG Group, the Lithuanian railway company, in collaboration with Telia Lithuania.

The upgrade, one of the largest network modernisation projects in Lithuania’s public sector in the past decade, is designed to enhance the security, speed, and reliability of LTG’s communications network. The upgraded system is ready for advanced services such as Communications-Based Train Control (CBTC) and integrates enhanced cybersecurity features, ensuring LTG’s compliance with industry standards.

“The upgraded network ensures smooth and safe train traffic and efficient office operations. From now on, we will share data within the Group via a network that offers greater security, faster data transfer, and a smoother roll-out of new services. This is one of the largest and most complex network modernisation projects of the past decade, not only for LTG but also in Lithuania’s public sector,” said LTG Group in a statement. “It covers everything from architectural design, replacement of network nodes, network management systems, and security systems, to cabling and migration of existing services to the upgraded network. It also includes seven years of service and support for the newly installed equipment.”
