Hitachi Energy has announced the launch of its new TRO600 series wireless routers with 5G capability, which are purpose-built to help industrial and utility customers achieve high reliability and resiliency in mission-critical operations.
With the integration of 5G1 technology, Hitachi Energy’s TRO600 series routers enable a scalable, flexible and secure, hybrid wireless communication architecture. A hybrid network-seamlessly combines the best of public and private cellular with broadband mesh, all managed through a single network management system. This approach unifies communications to all devices, ensuring fast, secure, and reliable connectivity for each operational need.
“5G will accelerate digital transformation and usher in Industry 4.0, which is characterized by large-scale industrial connectivity, low latency, and high reliability,” said Ahmad Khan, Senior Vice President, Grid Automation, Hitachi Energy India. “Using 5G and a combination of technologies in a hybrid architecture, utilities and industry can build wireless communication networks that can efficiently capture and exchange data between interconnected machines, devices, and people. This improves the efficiency and flexibility of systems and lays the foundation for sustainable future operations,” he added.
