SHENZHEN, China, September 29, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- China Information Technology, Inc. (the "Company") (Nasdaq: CNIT), a leading provider of Internet-based platforms, products and services in the country, today announced that it has installed 23 cloud-based new media terminals at China's largest high-speed railway station -- Beijing South Railway Station.
