Smart Utilities in Gas, Water and Electricity are for more than just convenience. A connected grid improves efficiency, safety and reduces costs through predictive maintenance and control. We have the tools for the ideal robust wireless solution.
Ezurio's (formerly Laird Connectivity) expertise and experience designing and manufacturing RF modules and antennas for WiFi, Cellular/LTE, MIMO, M2M as well as other wireless technologies has uniquely positioned Ezurio as a technology leader in the smart utilities space.
Ezurio's unique and proprietary AIO (Artificial Intelligence Optimizer) software enables Ezurio to design antennas that are fully optimized for specific applications, beyond the capabilities of conventional software design optimization.
Ezurio has proven itself as a leader in low profile and ultra-low-profile antennas with the best range possible for environments that demand antennas that aesthetically blend into their environment.
Today’s Smart utilities are connected using several unique wireless protocols, each of which feature unique strengths and capabilities for their given applications and Ezurio has solutions for each of these. Each brings something to the table: Bluetooth and Wi-Fi for gathering local/consumer end data; LoRaWAN to route data to the cloud over Low-Power WAN (LPWAN); cellular 4G/5G/LTE-M for nationwide blanket coverage; and even private networks incorporating high gain antennas for wireless backhaul. Every scenario has an ideal solution and our wide range of antennas gets critical data where it needs to go, securely.
Our decades of experience in antenna integration, optimizing antenna performance, and endless customization make Ezurio the natural choice.
Ezurio's diverse range of internal antennas are reliable, low cost and easy to install inside meters.
