NB-IoT Smart Meter Communication Module

The NB-IoT Smart Meter Communication Module is designed for low-power remote metering applications where water meters, gas meters, heat meters, and other utility meters need stable wide-area data transmission. By using existing operator NB-IoT networks, the module helps utilities and meter manufacturers build AMR / AMI systems without deploying private gateways.

It supports meter data acquisition, wireless transmission, two-way communication, remote parameter setting, valve control, and terminal maintenance, making it suitable for smart metering projects that require long battery life, reliable data reporting, and centralized device management.
