FreeWave Technologies to Showcase and Discuss Wireless Data Solutions at Automation & Power World

FreeWave to demonstrate how combined solutions allow customers to use wireless data radios for effective distribution automation in the Smart Grid

ORLANDO, Fla., April 19, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- ABB AUTOMATION & POWER WORLD, (Booth #55) -- FreeWave Technologies, (http://www.freewave.com), manufacturer of the most reliable, high-performance spread spectrum and licensed radios for critical data transmission, will showcase its portfolio of wireless data radio solutions, including its IO Sensor Module and FGR2-PE, for a multitude of Smart Grid applications at this year's ABB Automation and Power World (http://www.abb.com/A&Pworld).

FreeWave will be demonstrating its IO Sensor Module and FGR2 Series radios in the conference's Technology and Solutions Center (Booth #55 & #56).  FreeWave's IO Sensor Module combines measurement and communications in one package to measure voltage, current and temperature at a three-phase sensor. The power line data is then sent to the utility for monitoring and management. FreeWave's FGR2 Series wireless radios offer superior noise filtering and interference handling, are capable of accurately transmitting data up to 60 miles, and offer the lowest power consumption in the industry.

"FreeWave's IO Sensor Module and FGR2 Series radios offer customers developing Smart Grid networks the most robust and reliable solution available," explained Curt Goldman, business development executive at FreeWave Technologies. "Our technologies are proven to deliver critical data transmission for distribution automation applications in the Smart Grid marketplace."

In addition, Goldman also will be presenting a paper on "Wireless Communications for Distribution Automation" as part of the conference agenda. During his presentation, Goldman will review how FreeWave Technologies' radio transceivers are used in the Smart Grid for remote monitoring and control without any hardwiring in the infrastructure.

Goldman's talk will take place on Wednesday, April 20, 2011 from 4:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. as part of the conference proceedings. A copy of his presentation and paper can be obtained by contacting Catapult PR-IR at 303-581-7760.
