Cellular networks sound too busy for the smart grid. Can they really provide the bandwidth speed needed for all of these new meters?
Yes. By using a commercial carrier for MLGWs smart grid network, the data being transmitted is not being interspersed with text messages and phone calls, but rather through a dedicated network channel (which is like a private network). As the network speed improves and moves to 4G speeds and beyond smart grid networks reap the benefits by allowing MLGW to deploy the latest technology available at any.
