Connectivity Solutions for Utility
Modernize Utility Communication Networks with Wireless Broadband
Deliver cost-effective, resilient, and secure connectivity for mission-critical applications
Our aging electric infrastructure is long overdue for an overhaul. Utilities are investing in newer technologies, tools, and techniques to modernize the grid. This includes efforts in smart grids along with advanced metering infrastructures. This consists of energy storage, microgrids for distributing energy, and demand response programs as well. Advanced communication technologies are a major part of enabling grid modernization.
Our Solutions
BEC Technologies' industry-leading wireless broadband solutions use 4G LTE and 5G network solutions to modernize utility communications. We offer industrial modems, routers, and gateways to provide utilities with the newest, high-performance, and secure mission-critical communication. Platforms that are cost-effective and versatile use the latest cellular technologies. That covers commercial or private dedicated networks over licensed, shared 3.5 GHz Band 48 CBRS, and Anterix 900 MHz private LTE spectrum.

Distribution Automation Communication Solutions
Utilities adopting Distribution Automation increased stability and reduced operations costs. A part of it is LTE, which is best for anything needing more bandwidth, better coverage, and lower latency for applications. Using AMI, FLISR, and SCADA applications with LTE technology has proven to increase the reliability and efficiency of distributed energy resources.
FLISR
FLISR or Fault location, isolation, and service restoration have automatic sectionalizing, along with automatic circuit reconfiguration. DA operations are done by working with software and field devices. Dedicated communication networks prevent any outages by knowing exactly where any fault may be.
SCADA
SCADA or Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition systems are needed for industrial organizations to keep up efficiency. It also helps lessen downtime by using data to fix any system issues. Modbus-enabled equipment makes connecting easy to use and view critical systems.
AMI Backhaul
AMI or Advanced metering infrastructure is a system that allows a two-way communication system between utilities and customers. It works by using smart meters, communication networks, and data management systems together. AMI has progressed well over the years with improved coverage, bandwidth requirements, plus many others. Using LTE meets these requirements and more since it can provide service when AMI technologies are unable to do so.
Video Surveillance
Video surveillance is vital to keep substations for utilities safe since many are remote and unstaffed. Along those lines, using LTE will lessen the risk of any video delay since it has the capability to provide the bandwidth and capacity required for today's IP video surveillance systems.
