SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND APPARATUSES FOR REDUCING NETWORK CONGESTION IN A SMART UTILITY METER SYSTEM Systems, methods, and apparatuses for reducing network congestion in a smart utility meter system are provided. The systems, methods, and apparatuses may include providing, for a utility meter, a first communications interface for communicating with a first network; providing, for the utility meter, a second communications interface for communicating with a second network different from the first network; receiving or generating, by the utility meter, information having a destination; selecting either the first communications interface or the second communications interface; and delivering the information to the destination via the selected communications interface. - -) - -- - -- - o --- -- -- - -I - -) - - C>- Z - - ot . : n 1 L - - - -- |
