HITACHI ENERGY UNVEILS NEW TRO600 SERIES WIRELESS ROUTERS WITH 5G CAPABILITY

KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 16 (Bernama) -- Hitachi Energy has announced the launch of its new TRO600 series wireless routers with 5G capability, which are purpose-built to help industrial and utility customers achieve high reliability and resiliency in mission-critical operations.

With the integration of 5G technology, Hitachi Energy’s TRO600 series routers enable a scalable, flexible and secure, hybrid wireless communication architecture, according to a statement.

A hybrid network seamlessly combines the best of public and private cellular with broadband mesh, all managed through a single network management system. This approach unifies communications to all devices, ensuring fast, secure, and reliable connectivity for each operational need.

“At Hitachi Energy, we are proud to pioneer 5G-enabled communication devices for industrial and utility customers, ensuring connectivity where and when it matters most,” said Managing Director of Hitachi Energy's Grid Automation business, Massimo Danieli.

“5G is essential on our path to decentralise and decarbonise the energy system and to accelerate the energy transition. With 5G, businesses can further expand a data-driven approach to efficiently manage their energy demand and balance the load on the grid.”

Integrating 5G connectivity in the TRO600 series ensures optimal efficiency for multiple customer use cases across smart cities, oil and gas, mining, manufacturing, and utility applications.

The high throughput supported is expected to drive greater adoption of virtual and augmented reality and video applications to aid operational efficiency and optimise processes.

Meanwhile, the ultra-reliable low latency communications (URLLC) allow for greater digitalisation of operational infrastructure and scalability of mission-critical control applications.

Hitachi Energy’s hybrid connectivity solutions can provide a combination of interoperable technologies on a single communication network, enabling applications for edge devices, mobile devices, and field networks, spanning environments from dense urban to ultra-rural.

In addition to the hybrid wireless architecture, Hitachi Energy’s TRO600 series provides robust mission-critical wired backhaul through a selection of gigabit ethernet and fiber interfaces.
