AMI 4-Hour Meter Reads

Typical AMI networks are designed to deliver usage
data every 4 hours. With the superior speed and
performance of an Itron network providing speeds
up to 2.4 Mbps, latency of 10 ms and dual band
meshing, utilities have the incremental network
capacity to deploy more applications and
more advanced use cases—all powered by
a unified communications platform.

Solar Inverters

Using Itron Networks to deliver 1-minute interval data from
solar inverters enables DA equipment to make faster,
smarter decisions on how to optimize power flows
in response to temporary changes in energy
production by distributed energy resources (DERs).
As DER penetration increases, Itron Networks enhanced
performance enables utilities to stream
ever-increasing amounts of data without
compromising network performance.
