iDirect… Smart Grid Going Places WIth Satellites (Analysis | Reports)

May 22, 2013

[SatNews] The results are in… 60 percent of leading utilities use satellite for smart grid connectivity to support SCADA, telemetry, voice and backhaul. More importantly, these companies rated satellite as a top choice for deploying ubiquitous coverage—especially to remote locations.

Find out why decision-makers choose satellite—and how modern satellite delivers low latency, highly portable smart grid connectivity. In a report from UTC Research, Strategic Assessment Of Satellite Usage In The Utility Industry, discover why the modernization of the grid requires the reliability and coverage that only satellite provides. You’ll learn:

  • How satellite’s highly portable capabilities allow utilities to bring reliable, low latency connectivity wherever it’s needed
  • How to support SCADA communications, backhaul, emergency voice and more in difficult to reach locations
  • Why utilities prefer private network solutions, such as satellite technology, over public networks—by a margin of six to one
Discover how satellite fits into the communications mix of leading utilities—and how it can help you deliver the services you need to support smart grid connectivity.

You may download the report at this direct web page link.
