About The Customer
MicroPower Technologies is a provider of integrated solar-powered, wireless surveillance systems optimized for rapid, cost-effective deployment for security, operations, and business-intelligence applications.
The Challenge

A customer of MicroPower Technologies, a large public utility decided to evaluate video surveillance technologies wanted a solution to monitor remote distribution lines for adverse conditions over 4,000 square miles, in 25 cities and towns. Turbulent weather is a disruptive condition, which is why the utility employed three full-time meteorologists to provide early warnings of imminent risks to its ability to maintain uptime of its systems.

The Solution

MicroPower’s solar-powered, wireless surveillance platform equipped with Digi cellular router provides primary and backup connectivity and is designed for wide area network (WAN) connections over 3G/4G LTE networks and beyond. Gobi technology provides failover between multiple cellular carriers. Software Components - The MicroPower SOLVEIL HD Surveillance Platform
