Londian Data Concentrator Unit – Advanced Smart Metering Hub for Grid Intelligence
Introduction
En Londian Data Concentrator Unit (DCU) represents the next-generation core infrastructure for modern smart grid systems, engineered to orchestrate large-scale meter data acquisition, processing, and transmission. This industrial-grade hub integrates multi-protocol communication (4G/PLC/RF), precision clock synchronization (≤±1s/day), and military-grade environmental resilience (IP51, -25°C~+70°C) to deliver uninterrupted data flow between end-point meters and utility master stations.
Designed for AMI (Advanced Metering Infrastructure) deployments, the DCU enables utilities to remotely configure tasks, monitor meter health, trigger firmware updates, and analyze consumption patterns—all while ensuring bank-grade security through authority password management.
