Pacific Controls Inc. Showcases Smart Grid Technology in Sprint's M2M Collaboration Center
BURLINGAME, California, Nov. 2 / PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
Pacific Controls Inc unveiled a live demonstration of its
Galaxy(TM) Service Delivery Platform (SDP) in Sprint's (NYSE: S) M2M
Collaboration Center, a place where machine-to-machine and embedded computing
will come to life in direct collaboration with leading names in networking,
computing and applications technology. The Center based in Burlingame,
Calif., opened Oct. 25, 2010.
This permanent installation will allow Sprint business
customers and development partners to learn about the ground breaking
Galaxy(TM) SDP functionality and test it live.
Pacific Controls' Galaxy(TM) SDP delivers building operating
intelligence and capabilities, enabling the smart grid to be even smarter.
Currently, smart-grid technology stops at the electric utility meter, greatly
limiting electric power grid control functionality and capabilities.
Galaxy(TM) enables building owners and operators to collaborate with their
electric utility to reduce loads during peak periods and optimize the flow of
electricity through the utility's grid throughout the day, while sustaining
the productivity of their business operations.
Dilip Rahulan, Chairman and CEO of Pacific Controls, said, "We
are pleased to be able to collaborate with Sprint at this level. We intend to
revolutionize the way managed energy services and smart grid solutions are
delivered using ICT and M2M technology. The Sprint M2M Collaboration Center
will help us by providing an opportunity to match our resources with a
combination of 3G, 4G and IP capabilities that only Sprint can deliver today.
The center will also showcase some of the value propositions that can be
achieved by using our platform in real time. We are proud to be a part of the
Sprint initiative towards delivering sustainable technology and taking
leadership among the global telecom companies."
"With more than 10 years of experience developing
communications products in the machine-to-machine market, Sprint is dedicated
to cooperative efforts with companies like Pacific Controls to bring the best
technology solutions to work in the smart grid," said Wayne Ward, vice
president-Emerging Solutions Group of Sprint. "Sprint invests in technology

unique to our network to make their apps and devices richer. Sprint's goal is
to create as many opportunities as possible for utilities and developers to

vast promise."
