The upgraded capabilities in AmbientNMS include customized lists and maps, data traffic prediction, control modules, and new aggregation tools. These upgrades are part of Ambient's continual process to enhance Ambient's smart grid communications platform.

"With the total orders for our X-3100 smart grid communications nodes now nearly 83,000 units, the total number of end points supported in aggregate by these nodes is expected to nearly triple the over 200,000 endpoints served today.  This new release of the NMS system is designed to support beyond this level of scaling while adding new features and capabilities," stated John J. Joyce, President and CEO of Ambient Corporation.

Ambient's smart grid architecture is designed to promote more reliable, affordable and environmentally friendly energy delivery operations.  Its flexibility and functionality allows for efficient two-way communication, collection, analysis and management of energy data from multiple sources and systems not available today from other vendors.

"For more than 10 years, we have been delivering an open and secure communications platform. We have already received significant orders for our proven, field deployed technology, while providing or supporting an increasing number of smart grid applications and we expect that trend to continue," stated Ram Rao, SVP and CTO of Ambient Corporation. "An intelligent and robust network management system that scales is necessary for this expected increase in applications, and the new AmbientNMS is built to not only support existing applications, but others that may come along."
