 Indian Railways
 Indian Railways is owned and operated by the Government
of India through the Ministry of Railways.

 It is the fourth largest railway network in the world

comprising 119,630 km of total track and 92,081 km of
running track over a route of 66,687 km with 7,216 stations
at the end of 2015-16.

 IR is the world's eighth biggest employer and had 1.331

million employees at the end of 2015-16. In 2015-16, IR
carried around 8.107 billion passengers annually.
 RAILNET
 RAILNET is the name of the Corporate Wide Information
System (CWIS) of Indian Railways, aimed to provide
computer connectivity between Railway Board, Zonal
Railways, Production Units, Training Institutes, CORE,
etc.

 RAILNET was commissioned by IRCOT (Indian Railways

Central Organization of Telecom) through a contract
agreement with Tata – Infotech.
 INTRA-NET: It is a digitized internal network allowing
the railway officers and staff to communicate.

 INTER-NET: Allows user to get into global comm.

Through world wide web (www) , in a secured manner.
Passenger Reservation Service
 PRS started in 1985 as a pilot project in New Delhi. The
objective was to provide ticketing system for reserved
accommodation on any train from any counter,
preparation of train charting and keeping a proper
record of the money received. This was implemented all
over Indian Railway later on.

 With this implementation any passenger can get a

reserved ticket from one destination to another station
of India Railway from any Passenger Reservation
Systems counter of Indian Railways.
Unreserved Ticketing System
 More than 1.2 crore Rail
passengers travel in
unreserved coaches and
trains every day and thus
form the bulk of rail
users. For this category
of passengers Railways
have introduced the
facility of Computerised
Unreserved Ticketing
System.
Interactive Voice Response System
 Interactive Voice Response (IVR) is a software
application that accepts a combination of voice
telephone input and touch-tone keypad selection and
provides appropriate responses in the form of voice, fax,
callback, e-mail and perhaps other media.

 An IVR application provides pre-recorded voice

responses for appropriate situations, keypad signal logic,
and access to relevant data, and potentially the ability
to record voice input for later handling.
 Interactive Voice Response (IVR) systems allow callers to
get access to information without human intervention. Thus
callers hear a pleasant and cheerful voice 24-hours a day, 7
days a year without any attendant human fatigue.

 Since even the cost of the call is borne by the caller, apart
from the one-time installation cost, there is no running
expense for the company who deploys the IVR systems.

 Another advantage to the company is that it would

otherwise be impossible to handle high loads of callers, both
in terms of time, and the cost of the large number of
individuals that it would require.
Network Devices & Topologies
 UTP : Short for unshielded twisted pair, a
popular type of cable that consists of
two unshielded wires twisted around each
other. Due to its low cost, UTP cabling is
used extensively for local-area networks
(LANs) and telephone connections.

 UTP cabling does not offer as high

bandwidth or as good protection from
interference as coaxial or fiber optic
cables, but it is less expensive and easier
to work with.
 A repeater is a physical layer device used to
interconnect the media segments of an extended
network. Repeaters receive signals from one network
segment and amplify, retime, and retransmit those
signals to another network segment.
 Bridges connect two LAN segments of similar or
dissimilar types, such as Ethernet and Token Ring. This
allows two Ethernet segments to behave like a single
Ethernet.
 A router is a device that forwards data packets along
networks, and determines which way to send each data
packet based on its current understanding of the state
of its connected networks.
 Conclusion
 Practical training is very important for each and every
student along with the theoretical knowledge.
