Utility Communications: Technology Integration and Security
Title: Utility Communications: Technology Integration and Security
Date: Wednesday, June 27, 2018
Time: 2:00 PM ET / 11:00 AM PT
Cost: Free webinar
Today’s trends reflect a complex communication environment for utilities as they face an increasing need to integrate, transition, converge, and support a variety of voice and data technologies. These include continued support of land mobile radio (LMR), introduction of long-term evolution (LTE), implementation of new applications such as enhanced PTT devices, replacing obsoleted legacy carrier leased lines, interfacing corporate PBXs, and migrating to carrier session initiation protocol (SIP) trunking.
As voice and data technologies evolve, these applications converge within a common network and operating environment and must meet corporate security policies to protect against never-ending cybersecurity threats.
This webinar will give you a better understanding of:
- The key influencers driving change in utility communications.
- How LTE is changing the communication landscape.
- Critical versus non-critical LMR-to-LTE voice and data convergence.
- The impact of virtualization – simplifying maintenance and security.
- Cybersecurity – the benefits of third party system security compliance, corporate policy alignment, and protecting network assets in a challenging “internet of things” world.
