Capturing and Using Aggregated Site Equipment Data from Telecom Sites for Informed Decisions
Managing telecom networks, both wireless and wireline, involves monitoring and interpreting a lot of data from thousands of sites and dozens of data points at each of those sites. Network managers need to know the status of their sites at all times. Especially in the case when abnormal conditions occur, like a power outage or […]

Comparing telecom site automation to what people think of more generically as an IoT solution reveals some other differences. From experience rolling out across many remote telecom sites in […]
The Telecom Site Automation Toolset
In my last blog post, (My Boss Told Me to Go Find an IoT Solution Management for Cell Tower Sites), I talked about one recurring theme related to telecom site automation. There are vast differences between different telecom networks and even within a single telecom network. Suppose we were to use power as an example. […]
Legacy Alarming: Expanding Telecom Sites to Save Time and Money
Although the use of smart IP or serial devices in telecom sites is on the rise, legacy alarms, such as contact closures or analog inputs, are still widely used in most sites. In many cases, these legacy alarms are gathered by old or obsolete equipment. There are significant costs to change out the older alarm […]
My Boss Told Me to Go Find an IoT Solution Management for Cell Tower Sites
I have recently heard someone say that their boss tasked them to find an IoT (Internet of Things) solution to manage multiple cell tower site locations. It didn’t seem like the focus was on what the IoT solution would do, but it was important that it was IoT. It seemed that they thought that what […]
