JPSCo has being implementing a number of projects, each utilizing different Last Mile communication media type, to facilitate two-way communication with the Intelligent End/Edge Devices. These telecommunication media types are usually proposed by the suppliers of the Systems been piloted and are usually a proprietary and vendor specific system. Compatibility, ease of design, interoperability, security, ease of interfacing, interference, and ease of installation are some of the issues arising due to these proprietary solutions. How do we get the information back from the edge/end devices to the JPS Wide Area Communication network (Core)? What additional equipment do we have to use or what modification do we have to do to facilitate integration? Can the different media type interoperate? Do we have an adequate Telecommunication infrastructure to facilitate the successful implementation of the projects and systems being implemented?
The security and performance of the communication system; the standards and protocols supporting the Applications and the IEDs, will facilitate the real time sharing of data between users and end devices, and between end devices themselves (inter-devices).
