SGS’s CDU 500X Series In-Home Display Unit is part of SGS's SGSoft™ network. It communicates with the meters and other SGS-CSC network nodes PLC, GSM, MBus, or via RF signal.
Each In-Home Display Unit communicates directly with its SGS-CSC AMI node using any of PLC communications, GSM (Utility Control Center) or RF (ZigBee) communications. SGS’s CDU 500X Series In-Home Display Unit provides benefits for both utilities and end-users:
