Zigbee is part of the Smart Network that both the Electric companies\u00a0(BC Hydro & FortisBC ), Gas Companies (FortisBC) and the Appliance companies have a plan for in the not to distant future. \u00a0The so called “Smart Appliances” will communicate with the smart meter network.<\/p>\n

Itron Smart Meter information<\/a><\/strong> states this about Zigbee :<\/p>\n Regular Model<\/a> &\u00a03G Model<\/a> :\u00a0<\/strong> “\u00a0<\/strong>In addition, each OpenWay CENTRON meter <\/strong>comes factory-equipped with a\u00a0ZigBee\u00ae radio chip<\/span><\/a><\/strong>\u00a0to provide a built-in communications pathway into the home for data presentation, load control and demand response. \u00a0ZigBee also provides a communication channel with 2.4GZ OpenWay Gas Modules<\/span><\/a><\/span>.<\/strong>“<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n ” Zigbee Transceiver – Enables communication with Home Area Network (HAN) devices<\/strong>”\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n ”\u00a0Home Area Network (HAN)<\/a> : \u00a0<\/span>Every OpenWay CENTRON meter includes a ZigBee radio for interfacing with the HAN, in-home displays and load control devices. \u00a0<\/span>The OpenWay CENTRON can store consumption from 2.4GZ OpenWay gas modules utilizing the ZigBee radio.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n LTE Model<\/a> :<\/strong>\u00a0 ”\u00a0The OpenWay CENTRON Cellular LTE takes advantage of new advanced 4G\u00a0<\/em>LTE networks. This results in more efficient coverage, higher bandwidth and longer network longevity. The OpenWay CENTRON Cellular LTE includes both a ZigBee\u00ae wireless component<\/strong> and an LTE ICM that can be tailored to fit your unique needs. The module comes factory installed within the OpenWay CENTRON meter\u2014the solution ships as one complete unit, ready for field deployment. “<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n ”\u00a0ORS helps utility representatives understand the operational performance of their smart grid and advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) implementations.\u00a0With ORS, utilities will have the ability to: \u00a0 4 – Access granular details captured from OpenWay network devices (routers, extenders, ZigBee\u00ae devices and smart meters<\/strong>) ”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/p>\n Itron’s reference page to Zigbee<\/strong><\/p>\n https:\/\/www.itron.com\/na\/PublishedContent\/ZigBee%20SE%20Overview%20-%20November%202011.pdf<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Letter by Jerry Flynn to Nevada –<\/strong><\/span> <\/span><\/span>Smart Meters and Meshed Networks – Nov_9-2014<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0(PDF)<\/p>\n ”\u00a0The second transmitter inside every Smart Meter is the quintessential Trojan Horse,\u00a0which utilities call the \u201cZigBee<\/strong>.\u201d It emits its radiation – in all directions – on the\u00a0microwave oven frequency of 2.4 GHz and radiates for approximately 250 feet!<\/strong>\u00a0 The\u00a0ZigBee is there for one reason only: to control and operate the 15-or-so \u201cSmart\u00a0Appliances<\/strong>\u201d electric utilities envisage being in every home of tomorrow. Note: Smart\u00a0Appliances all have their own Zigbee-compatible transmitter, receiver and antenna\u00a0radio circuit enabling each to communicate its individual consumption data to the utility,\u00a0via the ZigBee radio and, in turn, receive instructions from the utility via the ZigBee\u00a0radio circuitry. Pacific Gas and Electric, San Diego Gas and Electric and Silver Springs\u00a0Networks have all admitted that Smart Meters are active almost constantly<\/strong> throughout\u00a0the day\/night in perpetuity \u2013 contrary to what all electric utilities tell governments and the\u00a0public! <\/em><\/p>\n From just the above, it can be seen that in even the smallest \u2018meshed-community\u2019 of\u00a0just 500 homes, there will suddenly be over 8,500 radio transmitters (500 LANs + 500\u00a0ZigBees plus<\/strong> 7,500 ZigBee-compatible Smart Appliances<\/strong> {500 homes x 15 appliances\u00a0per home}) all of which will emit harmful low-level, pulsed, non-thermal microwave\u00a0radiation throughout each and every day in perpetuity! And of these 8,500 microwave\u00a0transmitters, 7,500 of them will be INSIDE your home radiating on you and your family\u00a0\u2013 as well as spying on you! And none of them can be shut off!\u00a0“<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/p>\n https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/ZigBee<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n BC HYDRO – ZIGBEE SMART ENERGY<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n http:\/\/www.zigbee.org\/zigbee-for-developers\/applicationstandards\/zigbeesmartenergy\/<\/a><\/p>\n http:\/\/www.bchydro.com\/powersmart\/residential\/smart_meters___conservation\/monitors.html?WT.mc_id=rd_energymonitor<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Zigbee Resource Guide Magazine – Smart Homes<\/strong><\/p>\n http:\/\/www.nxtbook.com\/nxtbooks\/webcom\/zigbee_rg2014\/#\/6<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\nItron OpenWay Report System<\/strong><\/a> (BC HYDRO)<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
