InRouter900 Enables Secure & Reliable Distribution Network Automation Monitoring

InRouter900 Enables Secure & Reliable Distribution Network Automation Monitoring

1. Scenario Background
A Southeast Asian power utility manages 500+ Distribution Automation (DA) terminal units (e.g., TTU, FTU) across rural/urban grids. Previously:
Unsecured data transmission between DA units and the data center (cyber threat risks)
DA devices failed frequently in harsh outdoor environments (extreme temps, voltage fluctuations)
Unstable connections delayed fault response; incompatible protocols blocked data sharing.
2. Product Selection
InHand InRouter900 — with VPN-secured transmission, rugged design (wide temp: -25~70℃; 12-48V wide voltage), and IEC 101/104 protocol support for DA system compatibility.
3. Core Pain Points
Unsecure DA data transmission
High device failure in harsh outdoor conditions
Unstable connections & protocol incompatibility
4. Solutions with InRouter900
Link InRouter900 to DA terminals; transmit data to the DA center via encrypted VPN tunnels.
Use its rugged design to withstand outdoor extreme temps/voltage fluctuations.
Leverage IEC 101/104 support for seamless data interoperability between devices and the center.
5. Implementation Results
100% secure data transmission (VPN encryption eliminates cyber risks)
DA device failure rate down 80% (wide temp/voltage resilience)
Grid fault response time cut from 2hrs to 20mins; maintenance costs reduced by 30%
