Cellwatch Frontier

Cellwatch Frontier: Solutions for Utilities and Remote Sites

Cellwatch Frontier ensures power dependability for smaller remotely located batteries, and is designed for Power, Telecom, Industrial, Rail, and small remote enterprise applications. Cellwatch Frontier is an advanced battery monitoring solution that increases the reliability of switchgear, telecom, and generator-start batteries while substantially reducing manual maintenance costs.

Frontier was purpose-built for NERC standards compliance monitoring and meets the PRC-005-6 battery maintenance requirements, making it easy and cost-effective to comply with these regulations. 

Frontier tests substation batteries daily to ensure they will work when called upon and integrates into SNMP and SCADA using DNP3 or Modbus to centralize monitoring of every remote battery and integrate battery monitoring into existing maintenance procedures. With Cellwatch Frontier, battery experts are coordinated with field personnel, operations, and maintenance to ensure maximum efficiency and effectiveness.
