measurable.energy Network Requirements

Specifications

Bandwidth	Typically, 6 MB per 24 hours per socket (dual gang and FCU), 1000 sockets will not exceed 1MB/s
Frequency	2.4 GHz
Wi-Fi Encryption	WPA2 PSK
Communication with other devices	None
Communication with other sockets	None
Allow listing required	Port 123 TCP/UDP: time.aws.com Port 443 + 8000 TCP/UDP: firmware.measurable.energy Port 8883 TCP/UDP: iot-mqtt-eu-west-2.measurable.energy
Wi-Fi Coverage	Suitable coverage and capacity is required by Wi-Fi access points to cover all areas where m.e Power Sockets are installed. This may require additional access points if m.e Power Sockets are installed in areas lacking Wi-Fi coverage.
Minimum bitrate	Set no higher than 11 Mbits/s
IP Address availability	Enough unused IP addresses available for 1 per m.e device. Desk extension kits (BB4) should be treated as 2 devices.

Further requirements for Wi-Fi connection

For the m.e Power Sockets to connect to your Wi-Fi details, we must obtain your SSID and password.

We provision your Wi-Fi details in our secure provisioning environment and use 1Pasword vaults to share Wi-Fi details securely.

1Password is a secure vault that only you, or a person you nominate, and measurable energy will have access to. Details about their security can be found here: 1password security.

Common reasons why Wi-Fi connection fails:

Incorrect SSID and password shared with the m.e team.
- Watch out for trailing spaces in SSID.
Frequency on 5 GHz instead of 2.4 GHz.
A firewall blocking m.e access.
Poor network coverage with not enough access points for the space.
