Chapter 1: Product Description
This chapter provides a general description of the Neptune
®
R900 cellular endpoint for
wall and pit applications.
The R900 cellular endpoint is a network endpoint that collects meter reading data from an
encoder register. It then transmits the data for collection using LTE-M cellular
technology. The collection data is stored and downloaded into the utility billing system
for processing.
The R900 cellular endpoint is easily installed in wall or pit applications. It operates on the
AT&T and FirstNet LTE-M networks. The R900 cellular endpoint stops RF transmissions
when the battery discharges below the normal operating voltage at the end of its
lifespan.
