The demand for electric cars and solar energy is driving energy companies to innovate in smart-grid solutions. A properly design network enables smart-grid infrastructure to have good redundancy in the distribution network, also prevent energy theft, and using controlled brown-outs to avoid a grid-wide failures.
A intelligent substation network is composed of intelligent telemetry devices and controls supported by inhand networking equipment. Utilising the power of the IEC 61850 protocol, the inhand network devices powered network enables information sharing between different equipment and different power distribution nodes.
A reliable and intelligent communication network is a key component to the success of distribution networks.
Network Topology
ISM 3028U, modular rack mounting industrial Ethernet switch with 24 Ethernet and 4 Gigabit ports.
The industrial grade InSwitch offers a reliable networking solution for utility communication networks.
- Operating temperature: -40~85 Celcius
