MainNet's medium voltage solution enhances the performance of each transformer within the electricity grid, enabling it to operate as a broadband access point. Designed to work on both medium-voltage underground and overhead grid topologies, the system operates in conjunction with non-isolated and isolated, inductive and conductive couplers. Featuring intelligent routing capabilities, MainNet's medium-voltage solution improves network backhaul data capacity and shortens time-to-market.
