Landis+Gyr Supports Multiple Carriers With New IoT Meter | Light Reading
ATLANTA — Landis+Gyr has released an omni-carrier cellular meter and services solution to simplify installation and operation of cellular communications for utility IoT applications.
A first of its kind for North America, Landis+Gyr’s LTE-M cellular meter is omni-carrier capable, with a single meter model that is capable of supporting a variety of available cellular carriers. The meter can automatically provision the optimal carrier network on installation and provides increased resilience with automatic failover to alternate networks following loss of service. This level of flexibility, which has not been available in grid communications until now, enables utilities to avoid costly carrier lock-in.
