Power

Energy systems are among the most critical infrastructures of any country. From electricity generation and transmission to distribution networks and renewable sources, energy companies rely on communication networks that must remain operational under all circumstances – including storms, cyber threats and large-scale outages.
Communication equipment used in the energy sector must meet the highest standards of security and reliability. RACOM has proven its ability to meet these demands in real-world operation for decades. Today, our devices are deployed in thousands of installations across dozens of countries on every continent, and the majority of the radio modems and cellular routers we manufacture are used in the energy sector.

Applications

Our products meet the strict standards required for communication equipment in the energy industry. Thanks to outstanding technical performance and the high level of technical support provided by RACOM, they are deployed across a wide range of applications throughout the entire energy infrastructure.

The largest number of deployments is found in distribution networks, typically supporting SCADA systems used to control disconnectors and substations. Our solutions are also used for smart metering connectivity and the management of renewable energy sources.

Our Expertise in the Energy Sector

RACOM has been delivering communication solutions for the energy industry for more than twenty years, becoming one of the global leaders in this segment. Leading energy companies on every continent rely on our radio modems and cellular routers. Our largest deployment is in Mexico, where more than 10,000 radio modems are installed in the CFE distribution network.

Through this experience, we deeply understand the communication requirements of the energy sector, where any failure can have serious consequences.

With outstanding RF performance, rugged hardware and advanced networking capabilities such as dynamic routing and QoS, RACOM networks support both legacy SCADA systems and modern IP-based architectures. Full in-house development ensures long product lifecycles, consistent behaviour and immediate expert support.

From distribution automation to national transmission networks, RACOM delivers communication systems you can safely build your infrastructure on.
