Processing and communications

Deployment approaches for network processing and communications

Centralisation RTUs

Centralise data collected across the network, enabling electrical information to be gathered, stored and transmitted to higher-level systems such as SCADA, DMS and analytics platforms, providing a unified operational view. Available in different configurations to match the complexity of each installation, they optimise costs and simplify architectures with multiple data inputs.

Monitoring of specific variables

Provide additional intelligence at key points across the network by monitoring specific electrical variables that extend operational visibility and enable more accurate diagnostics. These devices complement standard data acquisition by delivering critical information for advanced network management.

Integrated solutions

Combine data acquisition, processing and monitoring within a single system, providing a ready-to-deploy solution that simplifies network digitalisation and accelerates value creation. They are designed for environments requiring a more structured or standardised implementation, reducing integration complexity.

Why are processing and communications essential in a smart grid?

Digitalisation begins with data acquisition, but its true value emerges when that information can be shared, interpreted and used consistently across network operations.

Zillion’s Processing and Communications solutions act as the link between sensing, analytics and automation, ensuring that information reaches the right systems, at the right time, with the context needed to support better operational decisions.

Turn data into operational intelligence

This layer forms the link between the different modules of the Zillion ecosystem. It transforms field data into actionable information for today's operations while laying the foundation for the future evolution of the network.

Centralise. Consolidate data from multiple devices and measurement points into a coherent view of the network.

Process. Apply local intelligence, manage events and organise information directly at the edge.

Connect. Enable the secure exchange of information between network assets and corporate IT/OT systems.

Enable. Lay the foundations for advanced analytics, automation and new digital services.

What operational challenges does this connectivity layer solve?

By integrating devices, data and systems within a common architecture, it eliminates information silos and enables more efficient network management.

Request technical information

Information silos. Connect data from multiple assets and technologies to create a unified view of network operations.
Lack of analytical context. Organise and contextualise information at the source to improve the quality of analytics and operational decision-making.
Loss of critical events. Capture, store and manage key events to maintain traceability, even during incidents or communication outages.
Hardware incompatibility. Enable interoperability between devices and systems through open architectures and standard communication protocols.
