    Our SMGW Solutions

    Our smart meter gateways meet the highest security and quality standards:

    • IT Security: BSI-CC-PP0073
    • Compliance with metrology regulations: Type approval certificate in accordance with PTB-A 50
    • Interoperability
    • Technical Guideline BSI TR-03109-1 Version 1.1
    • FNN Specifications

    This ensures secure digital communication between the property and backend systems.

    Thanks to a consistent “security-by-design” concept and an integrated security module, the system ensures highly secure data encryption and comprehensive data protection. Installation and commissioning are particularly straightforward—thanks to the compact design, convenient connectors, and plug-and-play functionality.

    Our SMGWs are interoperable with all GWA systems and more than 20 meter manufacturers.

    In addition, they can be seamlessly integrated into our network management system, ensuring efficient operations management and device monitoring.

    The smart meter gateways currently support numerous tariff use cases (TAF 1, 2, 6, 7, 9, 10, and 14) as well as communication scenarios HKS 1–5. Thanks to their updatable design, our SMGWs will remain flexibly expandable in the future to accommodate new application profiles and functions, such as the SMGWplus.
