ETSI is organizing, with the support of the European Union (EU), the European Free Trade Association (EFTA), the Critical Communications Association (TCCA) and the Union Internationale des Chemins de fer (UIC), the 5th FRMCS (Future Railway Mobile Communication System) Plugtests event, which will be hosted by the UIC in Paris, France from 27 to 31 October 2025. 

What are the objectives and scope of the 5th FRMCS Plugtests event?

Interoperability and the harmonisation of mission-critical services are key challenges in successfully deploying and operating mobile broadband communication systems across various sectors, particularly in railways.

The FRMCS Plugtests events aim to validate the understanding of FRMCS standards and the interoperability of diverse implementations through a range of test scenarios based on the 3GPP Mission Critical Services framework, explicitly focusing on railway-specific features.

This event provides a collaborative environment where vendors, operators, and railway organizations can test their solutions, ensuring that equipment from different manufacturers works together seamlessly. Achieving interoperability and standard harmonisation is essential for the effective rollout of FRMCS, as reliable communication is critical for safe, efficient, and well-coordinated railway operations.

This FRMCS Plugtests event is part of the MCX Plugtests programme.

The tests will be based on 3GPP, ETSI and IETF standards, and are designed for the following equipment:

FRMCS capable MCX Application Servers (MCPTT, MCDATA, MCVIDEO) FRMCS capable MCX Clients (MCPTT, MCDATA, MCVIDEO) UEs and Cab Radios eMBMS Components IMS / SIP Cores Consoles and Control Rooms Test Equipments RAN Equipment (gNB) Packet cores (5GC)

The purpose and scope of the FRMCS Plugtests event are to test independently and jointly all components of the Mobile communication System for Railways. Railway-related test cases are available in ETSI TS 103 564. Additional railway-oriented test cases focusing on GSM-R Interworking and Migration and Interconnection for MC services will also be developed for this Plugtests.

Who can participate?

Vendors which develop and produce above mentioned equipment. All vendors must actively participate in the testing railway features. Products have to support Rail features like functional aliases, multi-talker, etc. Observers, which can be government organisations, mobile network operators, railways operators, users, agencies or regulators. Observers are welcome to help define the scope (i.e.functionality to be tested) for this event and to evaluate the tests statistics in the TRT (Test Reporting Tool).  New Vendors and Observers have to sign the Rules of Engagement and Non-Disclosure Agreement of the MCX Plugtests Programme to participate.

What are the advantages of attending the FRMCS Plugtests event?

To assess the level of interoperability of your implementations To validate your understanding of the standards To test with (many) other real implementations and demonstrate end-to-end interoperability To debug your implementation: early bug fixing, saving time and costs To promote the technology and the ecosystem

The Plugtests observer program

The focus of the observer program will be to examine and discuss the progress of deployment and the challenges of FRMCS. The observer program will be held onsite and will provide a platform to the various stake holders in railways to discuss the progress of FRMCS. 

The observer program will also include interoperability demos from interested vendors, which will show how their solutions meet the FRMCS Plugtests test cases and observer scenario use cases.

This Plugtests event is organized by ETSI and is co-funded by the European Union (EU) and the European Free Trade Association (EFTA).

ETSI is pleased to support the DSP Leaders World Forum, returning to iconic Royal Windsor on 3-4 June 2025, and bringing together industry visionaries, innovators and decision-makers to explore how CSPs, together with their ecosystem partners, are modernising networks to enable the provision of new services and innovations for their customers.

This year’s forum will spotlight the challenges and opportunities of designing and implementing customer-centric networks that empower business customers with the services they need to accelerate their own digital transformation.

Join ETSI on Day 2 at 2:40 PM (local time) as Ultan Mulligan, ETSI’s Chief Services Officer, takes the stage in Session 10 – The Market Perspective: Transportation & Logistics. Don’t miss the dynamic panel discussion on Reducing the Complexities of Large-Scale, Multi-Domain Solutions.
The transportation and logistics sector requires a mix of connectivity solutions, from high throughput, ultra-reliable and low-latency wireless, to low-power WAN (LPWAN) for sensor-based monitoring. Deployments are usually across large and often remote areas and meeting these stringent requirements takes significant investment in technology and time. How can telcos move from bespoke solutions to adopt a more scalable approach? Can they provide tailored and flexible solutions that can adapt to these challenging environments?

Event type: Interoperability Events

ETSI, with the support of the ETSI TC MSG (Mobile Standards Group), TC EMTEL (Emergency Telecommunications) and EENA (The European Emergency Number Association), is organizing the NG (Next Generation) eCall Plugtests 2025 event, which will take place from 10th to 13th of June 2025 in Bonn, Germany. This event will be hosted by Deutsche Telekom.

Recent amendments of Delegated Regulations (EU) No 305/2013 and (EU) 2015/758 require deployment of NG eCall equipment from 1st of January 2026. This event will allow to verify the interoperability of the different components that constitute the European Next Generation Emergency Communication architecture.

The NG eCall testing event aims at increasing the level of interoperability between IVS (In-Vehicle System) and PSAP (Public Service Answering Point) to provide the NG eCall service via a packet switched wireless communications network using IMS (Internet protocol Multimedia System) and 4/5G wireless access. 

Testing will focus on interoperability of the Next Generation eCall over 4G Long Term Evolution (LTE) between the In-Vehicle Systems (IVS) and Public Safety Answering Points (PSAP), supporting the Next Generation eCall. 

Testing will be based on the ETSI TS 103 683 (NG eCall: HLAP Interoperability Testing). NG eCall conformance tests, based on EN 17240:2024, as well as other testing activities can be provided by participating companies to complement the interoperability tests.

The event will allow to run interoperability testing for advanced emergency services scenarios, giving the priority to provide ‘real’ infrastructure from European Mobile Network Operators, especially an actual 4G network instead of a simulated one. It will help enrich the testing by bringing real use case scenario and move on to the next steps for vendors to deploy the next generation of a European Emergency Services network. This is why Deutsche Telekom will host the event and provide a real mobile network infrastructure for the testing.

In Vehicle System (IVS) and Public Safety Answering Points (PSAP) vendors are invited to join the event. The NG eCall Plugtests 2025 event offers the opportunity for vendors to run interoperability test sessions using predefined test descriptions.

This activity is co-funded by the European Commission and the EFTA.

ETSI is pleased to support the RCR Wireless News' virtual Wi-Fi Forum taking place on January 28th, 2025 starting at 9am EST/3pm CET.

With the 6 GHz spectrum increasingly available worldwide, Wi-Fi 7 adoption is set to grow rapidly, spanning a wide range of applications, use cases, and market sectors. However, can it support emerging applications that demand even greater throughput—such as AI/ML, AR/VR/XR, industrial IoT, and robotics?
