Overview
Landis+Gyr’s Gridstream Enhanced Cellular solution can expand network coverage for unique
metering applications, where other AMI communications may not be available.
metering applications, where other AMI communications may not be available.
The Landis+Gyr Cellular meters communicate point-to-point with Command Center’s M2M
(Machine to Machine) Adapter. The M2M Adapter is a component of Command Center that will
interface with the meter directly. This makes Cellular meters ideal for utilities with electric meters in
remote areas or areas where there is little to no infrastructure. The following diagram provides a high
level overview of a Gridstream Enhanced Cellular network with a Gridstream RF Network. The cel-
lular endpoints are unique in that the SIM card must be activated prior to deployment of the end-
points (See Chapter 4 “Deploying Endpoints”).
