Backhaul communications description | Consists of meters, collectors, access points and the head end system. Wellsboro’s TWAC’s server is the system that is referred to as the head end system. The collector is what the meters relay the readings back to at the substation. Collector sends meter information to the head end system over a network cable to the firewall which then sends the information over the VPN. From the firewall the data is then passed through a switch and to the TWAC’s server. | $416,973 |

* In some circumstances, costs are incurred before devices are installed resulting in a reported cost where the quantity is zero.
* All dollar figures are the total cost, which is the sum of the federal investment and cost share of the recipient (the recipient cost share must be at least 50% of the total overall project cost).
** In some cases the number of entities reporting is greater than the total number of projects funded by the Recovery Act because some projects have multiple sub-projects that report data. View list of sub-projects.
