SPEED-TO-VALUE PROGRAM

The Value of Reliable DA Communicationson a Converged Network

Today’s DA communications tend to be proprietary systems that support no

other smart grid application. They also tend to lack the security and remote

management demanded by more widespread use of distribution automation.

Silver Spring offers a better approach. The network at the core of its Smart

Energy Platform supports multiple smart grid solutions, providing the ability to

deploy reliable, high-performance DA communications on infrastructure shared

with AMI and other applications.

Silver Spring’s Bridge product family pairs with DA devices to provide reliable

communications that improve operational efficiency and reduce customeroutage minutes while providing visibility into the networked DA controllers.

The Bridge family can support the most demanding DA applications with

industry-leading security and management.

Adding Bridges to an existing Silver Spring network is easy, and multiple

deployment options for physical and logical separation are available.

Highlights of the Silver Spring DA Product Family

The Silver Spring DA offering includes hardware and software to simplify

DA communications and network management. The Bridges and management

software support:

» Easy device configuration and deployment

» Low latency across the network

 » Powerful visualization tools for network management

Silver Spring’s DA communications leverage common network equipment, reducing

costs by 20% while providing superior performance, security, and management.
