Case Study: City of Texarkana achieves more reliable water infrastructure monitoring with Peplink

From Radio to Cellular: Smarter, More Efficient Water Infrastructure Monitoring with Peplink

The City of Texarkana's Water Utilities faced a significant challenge in maintaining reliable, real-time monitoring for its 21 remote pump stations. high latency, and a lack of visibility, which often led to unnecessary and time-consuming site visits for its IT staff. To solve this, they turned to Peplink for a modern connectivity solution.

Peplink implemented a solution using MAX BR1 routers at each remote site, connected to a central Balance 380 router. Leveraging cellular connectivity and SpeedFusion technology, this created a secure and reliable network. The results were greatly enhanced stability and the ability to remotely diagnose issues, which dramatically reduced unnecessary dispatches. The Peplink solution proved to be more reliable, manageable, and cost-effective than the legacy system.
