Estimated monthly data per device

Lower band

—

MB / month

UDP · Zip (binary)

Upper band

—

MB / month

TCP · ASCII (normal)

Actual usage should land between these two figures. The lower band assumes lean UDP transport with compact Zip reports; the upper band assumes TCP sessions carrying verbose ASCII reports. Budget toward the upper figure to be safe.

Based on the Suntech reporting guide. Bands cover the two report formats. Real usage varies with alerts, retries and network overhead.
