BITU

Block Information Transmission Unit

This device transmits essential operational data between the Radio Block Center (RBC) and the railway trackside components in real time.

Features

  • The BITU transmits collected information—such as block track circuit occupancy status, level crossing status and obstacle/rockfall detection status—to the station equipment via optical communication. 
  • The station equipment analyzes the input data received from field devices and based on the analysis results, performs I/O control to provide integrated information related to block track circuits and safety equipment (e.g., level crossings, obstacle and rockfall detection systems) to the interlocking system.

Standards

  • Ensures system stability through dual-redundant relay architecture and optical ring management functions
  • Built-in real-time fault diagnosis enables predictive maintenance and reduces recovery time
