pole-mounted cell relay (PMCR)

An Itron OpenWay cell relay that is mounted on a utility or light pole. The cell relay contains the cell relay and cell master components within one housing. The PMCR is designed to achieve better radio-frequency local area network (RFLAN) performance by mounting the device at higher elevations on utility poles or other assets. The PMCR has four antennas that support wide area network (WAN), RFLAN, and Zigbee (2) communications. There are two external connectors that are used for power and Ethernet. The external connectors are weather-proof when used with Itron-specified cables.
