FreeWave Technologies' Dan Paladino to Discuss Leveraging SCADA for Water at DistribuTECH 2009

BOULDER, Colo., Feb. 2 /PRNewswire/ --

    WHO:        Dan Paladino
                Business Development Executive
                FreeWave Technologies, Inc.

                Dan Paladino has more than 10 years experience in wireless
                communication and control in utilities markets, including
                electric power, water/waste water and metering solutions. At
                FreeWave, Paladino is responsible for business-to-business and
                OEM growth and development. Prior to joining the company,
                Paladino was an independent consultant to organizations and
                providers using wireless technology to communicate in metering
                and sub-metering electric, water and natural gas environments.

                Founded in 1993, FreeWave Technologies is a world leader in

    WHAT:       "Utilizing Radio Frequency in SCADA Systems within the Water
                Industry"

                Radio communications and their advanced flexibility offer
                technological benefits to new SCADA system deployment as well
                as a means for upgrading performance to existing SCADA
                systems. In fact, the limitations and cost of wired systems
                can be eliminated. Improvements in radio technologies now
                allow for innovative control and monitoring of SCADA systems
                thus providing users the ability to more reliably monitor and
                control devices from a distance. This presentation will
                educate and reinforce how wireless radio systems can provide a
                reliable communication backbone for all of an organization's
                analog/digital (I/O), serial and Ethernet challenges.
