Meter Gateway for AMI
Jan 08 , 2021

What is Gateway?

Gateway is a network node that connects two networks using different protocols together, it also acts as a "gate" between two networks. It may be a router, server, or other device that enables data to follow in and out of the network.

Gateway is also called protocol converter, which can communicate between two networks using the same protocol or different protocol. As an integral part of smart meters or Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI), the meter gateway is the interface between consumers and energy suppliers. It can store and process data acquired by meters, then translate, encrypt and send the data to consumers and energy suppliers. Consumers can easily receive their own real-time or historical energy consumption information at home, and energy suppliers can also implement value-added services such as multi-tariff energy consumption, load shifting, demand response management etc.

Meter gateway can be set up individually or integrated into devices such as smart meters or concentrators, etc. TOPSCOMM has independent research and development team. We can support multiple protocol conversions and customized services according to customer’s requirements.
