Multi-Network AMI

Great for one meter or whole systems!

​

• Tesla Duo is a stand alone cellular endpoint 
• All Tesla Duo endpoints come with a built in 450 MHz RF backup even if you never use it
• Communicates to multiple cellular networks (AT&T, T-Mobile, etc.)
• Easy installation
• Meter neutral (installs on any meter with industry standard protocol)
• Tesla Duos can be installed in any meter system (AMR, AMI, competitor, etc.)
• Eliminate cell dead spots with Tesla Duo's built in 450 MHz alternative network
• The best network guarantee is the one built in from the start!

​

If cellular endpoints make the most sense to you, the Tesla Duo has got you covered! IoT cellular networks built on LTE-M platforms have become more and more reliable for machines talking to machines. A cellular endpoint that is able to talk to multiple cellular networks like AT&T, T-Mobile, etc. has also been a game changer. To create the most reliable performance, the Tesla Duo can choose between LTE-M and NB-IoT platforms while using its eSIM to choose the strongest cellular network available.  

​

What happens if I have cell dead spots or lose cellular coverage in the future?

​

The Tesla Duo has all of the cellular endpoint advantages along with a built in back up plan. If anything ever happens to the cellular network(s) available in your area Tesla Duo has a built in 450 MHz network you can use for drive-by or fixed network temporarily or permanently if needed. If you lose cellular coverage to a neighborhood or mountain valley, Duo Collectors are very affordable, can mount on a stop sign or pole, and easily cover a large subdivision. It is good to have a built in network guarantee! 

​

If you like the idea of cellular endpoints but know up front that part of your meter system is in a bad cell area, we've got you covered! 

​

Multi-Network coverage combines the benefits of a 450 MHz Licensed Private Network with the ease of cellular endpoints to create a robust and redundant automated meter reading solution. Each Tesla Duo endpoint is equipped with a multi carrier cellular modem AND a 450 MHz RF transceiver. The best communication path available is always chosen to ensure your data is sent to Tesla MDM (cloud based software) for utility use. Cellular dead spots can easily be eliminated by adding 450 MHz RF coverage where you need it. 

​

The greatest network coverage and redundancy possible is achieved by leveraging the benefits of both a licensed private RF network and public cellular networks working in concert. The Multi-Network approach creates a living network that adapts to cellular dead spots and changes in your environment like expansion, urban build up, or growing vegetation. Multi-Network Coverage is a future proof approach that means consistent coverage over the long haul.

​

The Tesla Duo is a meter neutral AMI water endpoint that connects to any encoder using the industry standard protocol through a communication cable. The capability of dual data output options makes the Tesla Duo unique. Meter information is sent to Tesla MDM over one of several public cellular networks to allow you to read your meters from the office. Tesla Duo automatically picks the strongest cellular network available and has the ability to switch networks at any time. 

​

Tesla Duos also have a built-in 450 MHz transceiver that can be used as a backup for AMR drive-by or AMI fixed network reading. Each Tesla Duo stores 120 days of hourly data for local data log extraction so you never miss a read.

​

The Tesla Duo is the most versatile AMI water endpoint product available, affording your utility more options than any other technology. With all of its capabilities, Tesla Duo takes the guess work out of choosing the right product for any AMI application.
