  • Sncf Paves the Way for Industrial 5G in France
    PRESS RELEASE SNCF PAVES THE WAY FOR INDUSTRIAL 5G IN FRANCE PARIS, JULY 02, 2021 Building on the success of the first 5G test platform in Rennes Station since 2019, SNCF and its partners – Orange, Nokia and the Institut Mines-Telecom (IMT) – are announcing, alongside the Secretary of State Cédric O, a "5G Living Lab" devoted to industrial practices. Located in two Technicentres in Rennes, these platforms will extend the 5G tests in Rennes Station to support the modernization of the SNCF group's industrial entities and fast-track their transition to an ultra-high-speed wireless network. OPERATIONAL SINCE 2019, THE 5G LIVING LAB IN RENNES STATION SNCF previously joined forces with operator Orange and OEM Nokia in 2019 as part of a call for innovative platforms by Arcep (The Regulatory Authority for Electronic Communications, Postal Affairs and Print Media Distribution). The aim was to test new 5G frequencies, known as millimeter waves (26GHz frequency range), which provide speeds similar to fiber, and the emergence of new use cases both for the general public and businesses. By opening this platform up to third parties, which was requested by Arcep, the three companies were able to work with many partners, including Qualcomm Technologies Inc., Sony and Lenovo and SME's such as FASTPOINT and AMA. Over a period of 18 months, SNCF, Orange and Nokia tested various services and use cases that simultaneously met the needs of passengers (instant media downloads (films, series, documentaries) with FASTPOINT), professionals (video-conferencing on a Lenovo 5G computer), maintenance technicians (immersive assistance with connected glasses by Rennes-based company AMA) and even journalists (filming and broadcasting 4K videos live using Sony devices).

  • STECF EWG11-13 Travelling and Accomodation
    STECF STUDY GROUP STECF EWG11-13 Development of the Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries Management (EAFM) in European waters 16-20 January 2012, Rennes - France The meeting is scheduled from Monday 16th , at 2 pm, to Friday 20th at 4 pm. Travelling to Rennes and Agrocampus Ouest . By air The easiest way is by flying into Rennes Saint-Jacques Airport (http://www.rennes.aeroport.fr/ ) via Paris (Charles de Gaulle CDG) or Lyon. Then take a taxi to Agrocampus Ouest (sometime known as the “Ecole d’agronomie” and located in Rennes, “rue de Saint Brieuc”). There is no bus service from the Airport to Rennes downtown or Agrocampus. Rennes Saint Jacques is a rather small airport and there are only 3 flights from Paris each day (operated by Air France, starting from Paris CDG at 8:55, 13:10 (a bit late) and 20:00 the day before). Depending on your time of arrival in Paris, it could be easier to travel to Rennes by train. (You can also fly into Rennes via Lyon) . By TGV train From Charles de Gaulle airport, either : - take the train directly from the Roissy Charles de Gaulle TGV station (around 10 mn by feet from any terminal) to Rennes. The easiest way… but in the morning there is only one train at 9:48 (four trains per day). Journey time is about 3 hours. - or, take the special bus (“navette pour Paris”) from the airport to the train station “Gare Montparnasse” in the center of Paris (allow about 1 hour from arriving in airport to arriving at Montparnasse).
