With over 15 years of experience pioneering city-wide network solutions for Smart City and Automated Metering Infrastructure, Bainuna Systems is the ideal company to guide you through this complex technology maze. New technologies have finally emerged that can truly deliver IoT-optimised, affordable connectivity to support the multiple smart applications that every utility or city needs to improve service and quality of life.

The most challenging component of such networks has always been providing “last mile” connectivity for multiple types of devices over a common infrastructure. Electric, water and gas meters, for example have different power requirements (gas and water meters have to be battery-powered), and have hitherto required different network solutions. But a new wireless standard has emerged, LoRaWAN, that combines the reach, low power, and cost requirements to support AMI for all type of meter over a single network.
