How Can CatalyX Help Utilities?
CatalyX supports utilities in their private LTE journey by:
- accelerating onboarding of devices during the network deployment,
- extending the private network coverage in gap areas and,
- providing back-up connectivity during private network downtime. From their private LTE network, utilities can seamlessly connect devices to commercial networks for primary coverage or as a fallback, helping them achieve the network coverage and resiliency that is required for mission critical grid applications.
