Initial Challenge

As a technical support engineer at Yeaplink, I encountered a complex smart grid connectivity project. Our INDUSTRIAL 5G ROUTERS presented the perfect solution.

Project Background

A major power company needed reliable communication for their smart grid system. Therefore, they approached Yeaplink for a stable networking solution.

Technical Requirements

The client needed continuous monitoring of multiple power substations. Indeed, data transmission reliability was their primary concern.Our SR510 5G industrial router matched their specifications perfectly. Subsequently, we began planning the implementation strategy.

Solution Design

We deployed Yeaplink INDUSTRIAL 5G ROUTERS across 50 substations. Meanwhile, each location received dual SIM configuration for network redundancy.The routers supported both 5G and 4G networks simultaneously. Thus, ensuring uninterrupted communication even during network switches.

Key Features Implementation

We activated the built-in GPS/BeiDou positioning systems. Consequently, precise timing synchronization became possible across all substations.Industrial-grade encryption modules protected sensitive grid data. Therefore, cybersecurity concerns were effectively addressed.Our dual-network backup feature proved crucial. Indeed, it maintained 95.99% uptime during the testing phase.

Installation Process

The DIN-rail mounting design simplified installation significantly. Meanwhile, the metal housing provided excellent EMC protection.We configured each router through our STAR Device Manager platform. Subsequently, this enabled centralized management of all devices.

Network Architecture

The routers created secure VPN tunnels to the control center. Thus, operators could monitor substations remotely with confidence.SNMP protocols enabled real-time status monitoring. Meanwhile, automatic alerts notified technicians of any connectivity issues.

Performance Metrics

Our INDUSTRIAL 5G ROUTERS maintained stable connections in extreme conditions. Indeed, they operated flawlessly from -35°C to +75°C.Data transmission speeds reached 2.5Gbps in optimal conditions. Therefore, real-time video monitoring became possible at critical locations.

Maintenance Protocol

We established automated daily health checks for all routers. Subsequently, this reduced manual inspection requirements significantly.Remote firmware updates ensured current security standards. Meanwhile, our technical team provided 24/7 support coverage.

Client Benefits

The power company achieved 40% reduction in network downtime. Therefore, grid management efficiency improved substantially.Real-time data collection enhanced predictive maintenance capabilities. Consequently, maintenance costs decreased by approximately 30%.

Future Expansions

The success led to plans for implementing additional routers. Indeed, the client requested 200 more units for their expansion project.We developed custom protocols for their specific needs. Subsequently, this enhanced the overall system integration capabilities.

Conclusion

Our INDUSTRIAL 5G ROUTERS proved instrumental in modernizing power grid operations. Therefore, Yeaplink continues leading industrial connectivity solutions.The implementation demonstrates our technical expertise and commitment. In conclusion, INDUSTRIAL 5G ROUTERS remain essential for smart infrastructure development.
