Smart AMI & 4G Remote Management

4G Remote Management — Flawless Connectivity.

Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) connects every meter to your office. With Prow smart meters and data concentrators you can read consumption, change tariffs, connect or disconnect supply and upgrade firmware without sending anyone to site.

Meters communicate over 4G, PLC or RF — directly or through a data concentrator — using the open DLMS/COSEM protocol, so your data stays accurate, secure and interoperable.

How it works

  1. 1

    Meters measure

    Smart meters record energy, demand, load profiles and events.

  2. 2

    Data travels

    Readings travel over PLC, RF or RS485 to a data concentrator, or straight over 4G.

  3. 3

    Head-end collects

    Your head-end system receives encrypted data and raises alarms.

  4. 4

    You act remotely

    Change tariffs, top up, connect or disconnect, and upgrade firmware from your desk.

  • Lower field costs

    Fewer site visits for readings, disconnections and reconnections.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a data concentrator?

Not always. Meters with a 4G module connect directly. For many meters in one building or estate, a concentrator using PLC or RF is usually more economical.

Which protocol do the meters use?

Our smart meters and concentrators support DLMS/COSEM, the international standard for meter data exchange, with AES-128 encryption on concentrators.

Can smart meters also work as prepaid meters?

Yes. Our smart meters support token-based prepayment and can switch between prepaid and postpaid modes.
