This Integrated Multi-Service Network for a Smart Grid is:
FOUNDATIONAL: The promise of Smart Grids can’t be realized without robust, scalable, secure and integrated networks underpinning their end-to-end scope.
Expertly Designing and Implementing Integrated Networks:• protects investments by reducing complexity and overlap• simplifies day-to-day management• allows phased deployments to balance near- and long-term
needs
STRATEGIC: Utilities will live with Smart Grid investment decisions for a very long time.
EVOLUTIONARY: Smart Grid initiatives are deployed into existing grids with legacy telecommunications. Revolutionary approaches increase risk.
SECURE: Grid and Network security (physical and logical) will require a comprehensive, policy-based approach using IP technologies to secure critical cyber assets.
COMPLEX: Multiple telecommunications solutions (Public and Private network services, wired and/or wireless) will exist in a complete solution for most utilities.
