17 SMART GRID CONNECTIVITY OPTIONS RADIO OPTICAL FIBER CELLULAR SATELLITE Source: wikimedia.org

18 RADIO Provides dedicated coverage with the use of transmission towers. Initial costs, however, are high as a comprehensive infrastructure is required as well as a specialized team for installation and maintenance. Coverage is also limited and does not extend outside of the infrastructure. There is also the likelihood that an issue in one radio can affect a large number of reclosers in the network.

19 OPTICAL FIBER Also an alternative but deployment costs are high. As with radio, it requires a complex infrastructure and specialized technicians. Once deployed, it becomes cumbersome and expensive to expand coverage. Source: exame.abril.com.br

20 CELLULAR Offer low-cost data transmission rates but are not reliable. Interruptions in the cellular network are often common due to traffic congestion, network instability and bad weather. Energy utilities can simply not leave mission-critical processes in the hands of a connection that may work most of the time. Source: baguete.com.br

29 REFERENCES 20+ Electricity Distribution Companies have proven the ORBCOMM s technology

30 INTERNATIONAL AWARDS AND RECOGNITIONS

31 CONCLUSION ORBCOMM s telematics systems do not require a complex infrastructure. Remote devices (terminals) are deployed to recloser sites as required and the installation process is quite simple. These environmentally-sealed devices require no maintenance and can be configured and updated remotely over the air. Whether satellite or dual-mode (satellite-cellular), ORBCOMM s terminals deliver uninterrupted, satellite connectivity around in the world. With this technology, energy companies have peace of mind knowing any issues in the grid will be reported and therefore addressed in a timely manner, regardless of location.

The SCADA Connection: Moving Beyond Auto Dialers

WHITE PAPER The SCADA Connection: Moving Beyond Auto Dialers ABSTRACT: Auto dialers have long been used to report alarms in SCADA installations. While they are useful for notifying users of alarm states,
