Data Sheet

Cisco Connected Grid WPAN Module for the Cisco 1000 Series Connected Grid Router

The Cisco® Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) Connected Grid Module is an IEEE 802.15.4g/e radio-frequency (RF) connection for Cisco 1000 Series Connected Grid Routers (CGR 1000 Series). It delivers 900 MHz RF mesh connectivity to a diverse set of endpoints.

The WPAN module allows utilities to converge multiple applications supported by the CGR 1000 across a single RF mesh network. Among these applications are Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI), Distribution Automation (DA), Integration of Distributed Energy Resources (DER), and Remote Workforce Automation.

Together, the ruggedized WPAN module and the CGR 1000 routers provide a versatile platform for diverse field area network (FAN) and Internet of things (IoT) communications deployments aligned with Wi-SUN alliance objectives for smart utility grids.

Product Overview

The Cisco IEEE 802.15.4g/e/v-compliant WPAN Connected Grid Module for CGR 1000 routers gives utilities highly secure IPv6-based, over-the-air network connectivity. These modules are ideal for high-scale deployments to smart meters, distribution sensors, distribution automation devices, gateways (such as the Cisco 500 Series WPAN Industrial Routers [IR500]), and other endpoints. They are also suited for use in multi-hop mesh networks and longreach solutions. Figure 1 displays a Cisco Connected Grid WPAN Module.

Utilities looking to deploy standards-based communications to millions of endpoints should consider the Cisco CGR 1000 Series with the WPAN module. The module provides dynamic, automated network discovery and selfhealing. And its multi-hop mesh networking delivers a high endpoint-to-collector ratio of up to 5000 endpoints per CGR 1000.

Connected Grid WPAN Modules are tightly integrated with the network services of CGR 1000 routers. For example, the CGR 1000 provides Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) Route Policy Language (RPL)-based routing for high availability and network reliability to endpoints connected to the wireless mesh. RPL is the standard for IPv6 Routing Protocol for Low Power and Lossy Networks.

The WPAN module, along with CGR 1000 software, also provides robust security features for access control, device identity, key management, and encryption. It offers four levels of quality of service (QoS). Together, the WPAN module and CGR 1000 routers provide comprehensive network statistics that help network operators quickly identify and troubleshoot connectivity issues.

The Connected Grid WPAN Modules and CGR 1000 routers can be deployed in numerous utility environments

worldwide. The product thus comes with an array of antenna and cabling options to match the utility’s own

environment. Refer to the antenna specifications (Table 4), cable specifications (Table 5), and accessories specifications (Table 6) for more details.
