Typical set-ups
Meters with a serial or Modbus port
A small gateway reads the meter over RS485 or Modbus and sends the readings to your platform.
Typical kit: Teltonika TRB246 or TRB140 with a 1GB multi-network data SIM.
Data loggers with Ethernet
Connect the logger to a compact router; the logger handles the data and the router handles the link.

Things to check before you buy
- The meter's interface: Ethernet, RS232, RS485 or pulse outputs.
- Signal in meter cupboards; use a smart meter antenna outside.

Questions
What is the cheapest way to connect a meter?
For one meter with a serial port, a small gateway and a low-data multi-network SIM is usually the most cost-effective option.
