What’s Next for Utilities Communication?

What’s Next for Utilities Communication?

As utilities transition to smart-grid and VOIP technologies, their need for converged transport of data communication is increasingly critical.
  • Written by
  • 11th November 2014

As utilities transition to smart-grid and VOIP technologies, their need for converged transport of data communication is increasingly critical. For many operating on analog radio systems today, a smooth migration path to digital, voice/data-capable LMR technologies is key. Whether deploying private DMR, TETRA, P25 or leveraging other options, such as unlicensed technologies, commercial offerings or potential partnerships with FirstNet, utilities must consider the overall benefit of a converged data environment.

During this webinar, we examined the pros and cons of these various communications options. Featured panelists included Wendell Little of ConEd in New York, Brett Kilbourne of UTC and Morgan O'Brien of Pacific Data Vision.

    At the same time that there
    At the same time that there is talk of converging transport for these technologies, there are also cautions about doing so. The worry that someone could hack into the power system (as has already happened) requires that systems that control the power grid be highly secured. The more systems that are connected together, the greater the security risk becomes. A double edged sword!
