Ethernet and RS232 distribution over fiber and pilot cables in 20 kV substations

Transport and distribution Utility substations have often used multi-pair pilot cables for telemetry and control communications to RTU / SCADA, counters, protection relays and such equipment. Low speed multi-drop modems were used over these cables but performance could not enable any Ethernet and...
