Itron’s Gen 6 RF Mesh Network leverages Wi-SUN technology to create a self-healing, self-optimizing Field Area Network (FAN) that scales seamlessly from neighbourhood clusters to citywide deployments.
Acts as both a mesh transit point and a functional NLC. Each MicroAP manages up to 500 neighboring endpoints and provides redundant secondary connections for another 500. Installs identically to standard NLCs, with optimal placement determined through Itron’s professional network design services.
NLCs dynamically associate with two MicroAPs for redundancy. The network automatically reconfigures and optimizes routing paths when nodes fail or environmental conditions change—eliminating single points of failure common in star-topology systems.
For areas where RF mesh coverage is impractical (e.g., dense high-rise corridors, remote industrial perimeters), cellular-connected NLCs provide direct cloud connectivity without requiring additional gateway infrastructure.
Itron’s managed network services handle all firmware upgrades, security patches, and performance monitoring—freeing municipal IT teams to focus on core service delivery rather than IoT infrastructure maintenance.
We provide end-to-end support—from network design and field installation to ongoing managed services—ensuring your smart lighting infrastructure performs reliably in Southeast Asia’s unique urban environments.
