For water utilities whose meter pit environments are harsh and unforgiving, Itron's 100W+ ERT® communication module now comes standard with an integral port to accommodate the optional Itron TTL antenna. The TTL optimizes the read-rate reliability of Itron's advanced fixed network systems for water utilities deploying the 100W+ in conditions where flooding is common or in meter pits with RF-inhibiting lids. The TTL offers utilities unequaled flexibility to collect meter data using Itron's ChoiceConnect™ solution whether in advanced mobile AMR, Fixed Network AMI or hybrid data collection environments.
