Improved Site Maintenance and Energy Optimization Through Monitoring and Expertise

Inhalt:
Telecom operators are facing increasing pressure to reduce OPEX and optimize their investmentsin infrastruc-ture equipment to avoid erosion of their margins. At the same time, they don’t want to compromise business continuity and network availability. Those whoproperly deploy infrastructure monitoring and, more importantly, engage experts to help manage the infrastructure will have higher probabilities to succeed.Furthermore, it’s important to take a holistic approach toinfrastructure management for telecom sites in order to quantify savings and producea complete roadmap of recommendationsfor the network.The benefits of this approach can be divided into three main categories: - Increasednetwork reliability. - Reduced and optimized OPEX (energy and site maintenance cost) - Asset and CAPEX optimization This paper will focus on how the holistic approach enables reduced and optimized OPEX.
