We are proud to be at the forefront of technological innovation, driving the future of smart metering and smart grid applications through our cutting-edge cellular communication devices. Our solutions empower utilities to optimize energy distribution, enhance operational efficiency, and deliver reliable services to their customers.
Last-mile smart metering via cellular networks is the best choice for utilities due to its reliability, scalability, security and cost-effectiveness. Cellular networks provide extensive coverage, ensuring that meters in remote or hard-to-reach areas are connected, thereby eliminating the need for utilities to invest in building and maintaining their own communication infrastructure. This widespread coverage ensures consistent data transmission and reduces service interruptions, enhancing operational efficiency.
Our cellular communication devices are integral to the evolution of smart metering systems. Energy meters equipped with connectivity enable utilities to gather real-time data on energy consumption. This data-driven approach provides numerous benefits.
These advantages lead to better customer service, optimized resource management, and improved operational performance for utilities.
Our cellular communication devices (like industrial routers, switches and relays etc.) are also pivotal in the development and deployment of smart grid technologies. A smart grid is an intelligent network that uses digital communication technology to detect and react to local changes in usage. Here’s how our devices contribute to a smarter grid.
The ultimate goal of any industrial automation project is to improve operational efficiencies by increasing profit and revenues and lower operational expenses.
Smart machines are better than human beings at consistently capturing and communicating accurate data, enabling companies to identify inefficiencies in their process, and isolating problems sooner, saving time and money, and supporting business intelligence efforts.
Cellular was the first communication technology to allow the adoption of early industrial (IIoT) applications and today the latest mobile communication technologies such as NB-IoT, LTE-M / Cat-M are key enablers of the ongoing industrial automation (Industry 4.0).
We offer future-proof communication devices with 4G LTE connectivity tailored for industry digitalization.
Products support wide-spread industry protocols (Modbus TCP, Modbus RTU, Mbus etc.) and are compatible with the systems of major PLC manufacturers (SIEMENS, SCHNEIDER, OMRON etc.) and SCADA systems.
Rugged, industrial-grade design guarantees reliability even in harsh industrial environments.
Battery-powered data loggers operating on Cat.M and NB-IoT networks, available in Pulse, M-Bus, and 4-20 mA configurations, provide versatile and reliable solutions for water and gas metering applications.
Whether reading pulse outputs from flow meters, collecting data from M-Bus-enabled devices, or interfacing with industrial sensors, these loggers ensure accurate monitoring with minimal maintenance and infrastructure requirements. Their adaptability makes them indispensable for modern utility management and environmental monitoring.
This breakthrough has only been made possible by the advancement of Narrow Band cellular technologies such as NB-IoT and Cat.M. Traditional networks like 2G or LTE consume too much power for battery-powered applications, making long-term operation infeasible. However, NB-IoT and Cat.M enable ultra-low power consumption, allowing battery-powered loggers to operate for 5-10 years without the need for frequent maintenance.
Their adaptability makes them indispensable for modern utility management and environmental monitoring.
