Proximetry, Inc. and Airspan Networks Inc. are extending their partnership to address the unique scalability and security network management requirements of end-to-end multiservice smart energy networks. The companies announced their new collaboration at DistribuTECH where Proximetry is exhibiting (booth 3155). Proximetry and Airspan share a vision that advanced smart grids are the fusion of two-way power-flow grids with multiservice communications networks, software, and hardware, to effectively monitor, control, and manage the creation, distribution, storage, and consumption of energy.

The Proximetry and Airspan solutions deliver a powerful operating and integration platform with core broadband network capabilities using licensed spectrum which is designed to bring together multiple networks using multiple protocols from multiple vendors. Proximetry and Airspan can jointly manage and support LTE, WiMAX, 3G, and Wi-Fi technologies, in addition to offering robust visualization, translation of business logic to network control, and network element management for lower total cost of ownership. Together, the Proximetry and Airspan solution enable greater flexibility, scalability, extensibility, and security than relying on non-integrated systems.
