Custom Modules
Eppeltone Custom Communication Modules for Smart Metering
Flexible, Scalable, Built-to-Order Communication Modules
Eppeltone offers on-demand, fully customizable communication modules specifically designed for smart metering and utility IoT applications. These modules are ideal for utilities, OEMs, and integrators looking for a communication solution tailored to specific operational, regulatory, and infrastructural requirements.
Unlike off-the-shelf products, our custom modules are manufactured to your specification — supporting hybrid technologies, protocol flexibility, and mechanical integration options that align with your system design.
Key Capabilities
Hybrid Communication Support
Combine RF Mesh and 4G/5G Cellular in a single module
Enable GPRS fallback for legacy compatibility
Seamless failover between technologies for high availability
Protocol Compatibility
Full support for DLMS/COSEM and IEC 62056 protocols
Optional support for Modbus, MQTT, REST API, or proprietary stacks
Flexible Interfaces
RS232 / RS485 / Optical Port (IEC 62056-21)
USB, SPI, UART or TTL (for embedded integration)
Wi-Fi / Proprietary Wireless Options
Optional Wi-Fi (2.4GHz/5GHz) module integration
Custom radio (ISM band) or long-range proprietary protocols on request
Built-in or External Mounting
Can be internally embedded into the meter’s chassis
Or externally mounted via weatherproof enclosures (IP65/IP67)
External options support pole-mount, wall-mount, and meter-housing installation
Power Supply Options
Can be powered via meter internal DC rails (3.3V / 5V / 12V)
Or equipped with independent external power input port (5–24V DC)
Low-power design for solar/battery backed systems
Custom Integration Options
Custom OBIS code mapping
Native integration with proprietary HES or cloud platforms
Firmware extensibility for future protocol upgrades
Integrated SIM/eSIM provisioning
Support for multi-meter aggregation (1:N)
Built for Harsh Environments
Operating range: -40°C to +85°C, 5–95% RH non-condensing
Materials selected for UV exposure, dust, moisture, and EMI resistance
Enclosures can be customized to comply with IP65/IP67 and IK08 impact standards
Applications
AMI and AMR deployments across electricity, water, and gas sectors
Off-grid and low-connectivity zones requiring hybrid connectivity
Retrofitting legacy meters with modern communication stacks
Custom industrial automation and energy monitoring use cases
Made-to-Order Engineering
Whether you’re building a national AMI system or a niche industrial metering application, Eppeltone’s custom communication modules give you the freedom to define what you need: – Communication protocol – Mechanical design and size – Interface types and pinouts – Power input range – Software stack and integration API.
Collaborate with our engineering team to design a future-ready communication module that fits your business and your devices — perfectly.
