Challenges to Industry

Today, all water utilities around the world are facing the growing demands on the services they provide, and in increased need to manage their SCADA systems and Distributed Network more efficiently. Optimizing the Ethernet network allows daily operation proactively perform monitoring, data access, and devices control in remote field sites effectively via centralized SCADA system. Many sectors within the water utilities, such as Water Resource Management, Water Pipeline Management, Water Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTP), or Remote Pump Stations Monitoring are having multiple plant sites not networked to each other, and spread out over a wide geographic area. Plus, the mixture of existing field sites legacy equipment, such as Modbus serial sensors, meters, or RTU, and PLC control systems are not Ethernet capable to be networked
