Tecell’s OCPP gateway is designed to sustain high numbers of concurrent WebSocket connections during peak charging hours, with dynamic load balancing enabling efficient handling of up to several hundred simultaneous connections per gateway instance. This capacity supports large-scale deployments where multiple charging stations must communicate in real time without performance degradation.
How Dynamic Load Balancing Enhances Connection Capacity
Dynamic load balancing in Tecell’s OCPP gateway distributes incoming WebSocket connections across available resources to prevent bottlenecks. This mechanism ensures that even as the number of connected charging stations increases, the system maintains consistent response times and communication reliability.
By intelligently routing traffic and adjusting resource allocation, the gateway avoids overloading any single component. This approach allows operators to scale their charging networks confidently, knowing that performance remains stable under high demand.
For example, during rush hour at a busy commercial facility, the gateway can seamlessly manage hundreds of active charging sessions without dropping connections or introducing latency.
Practical Implications for Fleet and Commercial Operators
Fleet operators managing large numbers of electric vehicles benefit significantly from this connection capacity. With dynamic load balancing, a single gateway can support dozens of charging stations across multiple locations, reducing infrastructure complexity and operational overhead.
Commercial deployments such as shopping centers or office complexes often see peak usage during specific hours. Tecell’s gateway ensures that these environments maintain reliable communication between charging points and the central management system, even when all stations are actively in use.
This capability also supports future-proofing, allowing operators to expand their networks without needing to upgrade hardware or software frequently.
