Silicon Labs is a trailblazer in wireless connectivity for the Internet of Things. For nearly two decades, Silicon Labs has been building an unprecedented platform to support the broadest set of wireless technologies, standards, and ecosystems in the world. During an interaction with Vidushi, Dhiraj Sogani, Sr. Director, Wireless Product Marketing, Silicon Labs discussed the smart metering outlook within the broader framework of smart cities and how it ensure data privacy and system integrity.
Can you elaborate on the impact of smart metering within the broader framework of smart cities and its role in energy conservation?
Smart metering plays a crucial role within the broader framework of smart cities, contributing significantly to energy conservation and efficient resource management. Smart meters measure and monitor the consumption of energy resources like electricity, gas, water, and heating to communicate the data wirelessly to utilities and help cities employ the resources more efficiently.
Are there any notable partnerships or collaborations that Silicon Labs has entered into to implement smart metering solutions in India? How do these collaborations contribute to the advancement of smart metering technology?
In June, last year, Silicon Labs announced its FG28 System-on-Chip (SoC) designed for long-range networks and protocols like Wi-SUN and Wirepas. The launch helped address the growing need for smart, connected devices in cities and different municipal environments. CyanConnode, a global leader in the development of Narrowband RF mesh networks, incorporated our technology into its products, enabling high-quality solutions for India’s smart metering needs.
CyanConnode Holdings plc (LON:CYAN) is a world leader in the design and development of Narrowband RF mesh networks that enable Omni Internet of Things (IoT) communications.
