Lessons Learned Deploying a Hybrid Itron System in an Indoor Environment

Indoor deployments expose the limits of traditional AMI designs—this is where hybrid networks prove their value. Based on Fort Wayne City Utilities’ real-world experience, this session explores lessons learned deploying a hybrid Gen5 and cellular solution at scale. Learn what worked, what didn’t, and how utilities can balance fixed and cellular networks to achieve coverage, performance, and reliability in complex, hard-to-reach environments.
