FAQ
What does SunGene need to quote NB-IoT Energy Meter Monitoring?
Please share target country and operator availability, meter phase and current range, reading interval, backend data format. With those inputs we can narrow the sensor, gateway, power and integration scope.
Can this connect to our existing platform?
Most projects use one of these paths: Operator NB-IoT network path; MQTT/API handoff by project; RS485 gateway where multiple meters are grouped. The final payload and protocol are confirmed before sample shipment.
Is SunGene a SaaS platform provider?
SunGene supplies monitoring hardware and documented data-handoff interfaces. Dashboard hosting, API development, alarm workflows and platform operation remain with the customer or its named software and integration provider.
Which technologies are normally considered?
The typical shortlist includes NB-IoT, Energy meter, RS485, Modbus RTU, MQTT. Exact certification, frequency band and network support are checked against the selected hardware and target country.
