Integrated management system for technical infrastructure of telecom sites

A company in which the implementation of integrated management system for technical infrastructure of telecom sites is described is one of the biggest operators of fixed telephony in Middle Europe and in Poland. The innovation is the great power of such companies. On competitive and fast technologically developing market operators fix their attention, among other things, on implementation of innovations in the sphere of management of technical infrastructure of telecom sites. Technical infrastructure of telecom site means the equipment which deliver AC and DC electrical energy with different parameters, air conditioning systems, fire protection systems, systems of controlled access and other equipment connected for example with hermetization of the network. The paper presents the practical application process of the system for telecom sites infrastructure management, which is presently dedicated to power and air conditioning equipment. Implemented system is based on client-server architecture, providing data to main or specialized monitoring centers. The server cooperates with specialized microprocessor controllers located at telecom sites or with technological controllers of supervised power and air conditioning systems. The integration with other, presently operating supervisory systems is also possible. The system monitors the equipment in real time. It provides data acquisition, saving and data processing and facilitates taking decisions which concern the operation and service of supervised equipment. The implementation of the system enable to create the platform which made possible the integration in one system the monitoring of whole technical infrastructure. The benefits to the system operator from the integrated management system for technical infrastructure of telecom sites implementation in more than 8000 sites were analyzed in the paper.
