Introduction The ROI on telecom site automation (TSA) solutions comes from savings within two main categories: network resilience and network efficiency. Most TSA applications will lead to savings in either network resilience, efficiency, or both. The solutions are modular, so not every installation includes all the parts described in the checklist. One significant advantage of […]

Implementing Power Visibility for Off-Grid Solar Hybrid Sites using the SiteBoss Site Controller Summary: Mountaintops and other higher altitude locations are excellent places to locate telecom sites due to the vast distances that can be covered from a single point. At the same time, mountaintops are difficult-to-reach sites locations that can make monitoring and service […]
Case Study Introduction Public safety networks have somewhat different needs than other networks. Especially in a large region with high temperatures like in the Middle East, network resiliency is a paramount concern. One of the main concerns with country-wide deployment is the fact that some sites can be located in extremely remote and distant locations […]

Telecom Site Automation is a logical and modern extension of what was once referred to by telecom network operators as remote site management, remote monitoring systems (RMS), or simply “site alarming”. Not too many years ago there was a general class of products referred to as a remote terminal unit (RTU). These units were primarily used […]

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 […]

What is a SiteBoss and How Does it Work?
Introduction Several years ago, I was involved in the start-up of a fixed-wireless Internet service provider company. During the initial years of the start-up, the biggest capital expenditures (CAPEX)s were the infrastructure components (e.g., towers, networking gear, radios, antennas, leases, construction costs, etc.). However, after a few years of expanding the network’s footprint, the CAPEX […]
