The FlexNet Advantage
FlexNet is simple. Its lean architecture uses a powerful, industry-leading two watts of radio frequency to transmit information to maximize range while also minimizing operational costs with low infrastructure requirements.
FlexNet is reliable. SmartPoints broadcast on a licensed frequency protected by the Federal Communications Commission. We literally own the airwaves via Primary-Use spectrum, which means only our customers send and receive uncluttered, clear communication throughout their system.
FlexNet is flexible. Sensus partners with its customers to create a system designed for that utility’s unique needs, regardless of dense or scattered populations, single or multiple utility services, flat or challenging terrains.
Sensus leads the industry not only in the total number of installed AMI devices, but with the strategic vision to propel your water operations into a Smart Utility. Sensus does this by using proven, real-world solutions that allow you greater operational and fiscal control of your system.
