Name change for RADOX® rolling stock cables

Today's rail transport has to be fast, comfortable and safe. And as passenger expectations rise and legal requirements become ever stricter, equipping rail vehicles with reliable, flexible, space-optimising and weight-sensitive systems is business-critical.

We hereby inform you about the renaming of RADOX® railway cables to enable user-friendly identification for cable description and selection. For power and control cables, the corresponding EN standard will be included in the name.

Why did Huber+Suhner do this?

To meet the increasing market requirements for reducing the CO2 emissions of cables
The combination of 3GKW – TENUIS and GKW with the EN standard in the same name is a market trend and is becoming increasingly important

What does Huber+Suhner hope to achieve?

  • Volume reduction (storage area – transport volume)
  • Weight reduction > 50,000 kg/year
  • Reduction of items >15%
