Fiber-optic networks are a proven backbone for utility communications — but extending fiber to every site is often impractical. Factors like remote locations, high installation costs, and difficult terrain can limit the speed and scope of fiber deployment.

In this joint webinar from Digi International and Anterix, we’ll introduce a flexible connectivity approach that augments your current infrastructure with advanced wireless solutions. By deploying wireless routers alongside existing systems, utilities can create a resilient, dual-path WAN Bonded network that leverages both private and commercial networks. This configuration provides automatic failover, enhanced uptime, and rapid scalability — enabling grid modernization without overhauling legacy systems. In this one-hour webinar, our experts will discuss:

• How wireless connectivity can match fiber's reliability for SCADA and grid operations
• Practical strategies for adding wireless solutions alongside existing routers and gateways
• Real-world use cases featuring Digi and Anterix technologies in live utility environments
