This is a FREE webinar.

As utility networks evolve to support increasing demands for bandwidth, lower latency, and higher data throughput, it is critical to understand both the current landscape and the direction of future technologies. This session will explore the foundational elements of utility applications and protocols, the communication media used to transmit operational data, and the methods that support these systems today. Attendees will gain insights into the transformation toward technology-agnostic networks, incorporating both fiber and wireless solutions such as Private LTE and Passive Optical Networks (PON). The session will also address how utilities can prepare for emerging technologies such as AMI 2.0, fiber-to-the-meter, and AI-driven decision-making. Emphasis will be placed on designing adaptable, future-ready network architectures that support a wide range of utility use cases without being bound to a single vendor or platform.
