This card resides within utility power meters, encrypting and transmitting critical data such as energy usage, voltage, and current. They also supply network infrastructure components like collectors, concentrators, and signal repeaters. Their software portfolio features GridMesh, which enables their hardware devices to securely integrate and communicate within the network. For robust wireless connectivity, Infrax offers Utility Max (UMAX) and UMAX+ solutions, allowing electric utilities and telephone carriers to establish point-to-point or point-to-multipoint Ethernet connections. The company further bolsters grid security with its Grid Intrusion Management systems. Infrax also offers a distribution automation solution, providing two-way communication from power grid distribution devices to central back-office systems or substations. Complementing their products, they provide managed services, encompassing network design, deployment assistance, and program oversight. Smaller utilities can also benefit from their professional services, which include engineering, construction, and project management support. Furthermore, to optimize asset tracking, Infrax provides an asset tracker solution for managing the inventory of smart electric power grid components, such as meters, collectors, concentrators, and other substation or field-deployed equipment.
