Solar an integral part of smart grid's future

As the world turns toward solar, it is the responsibility of utilities to invest in the advanced smart grid solutions to support it - as well as being critical for their continued survival in a distributed power system. Terminal servers, serial to Ethernet converters and the right Remote I/O solutions will help utilities advance their operations and optimize the management for both traditional and new power sources to ensure their customers are benefiting from the changes.

Perle offers a range of cost effective serial-to-Ethernet converters to help meet NERC-CIP compliance for the protection of critical cyberassets in substations. The IOLAN SDS HV/LDC Terminal Server is designed to meet harsh environments associated with Power Substations with attributes such as support for substation AC and DC voltage ranges, extended operating temperatures and meeting emission, immunity and safety approvals associated with substation IT equipment.
