Electric Power

Unprecedented system performance demands are making utility managers choose FreeWave. We have added applications that allow for broader deployment of our high performance family of radios which include IO and high throughput Ethernet. Heightened performance demands have required FreeWave to respond with encryption, serial radios that hop 500 times per second ("he who hops fastest wins"), and easy to use interfaces. Only FreeWave offers the broad, integrated radio tools for the emerging demands in electric power.

FreeWave radios are deployed in nearly every electric power application imaginable from protective relay, substation automation to quality of service monitoring.
