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 didnt 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 Asentria did was somehow different than IoT. This conversation has had me thinking about where Asentria fits in the world of IoT, and how we explain ourselves, and what weve called cell site automation to the world.
When Asentria starts considering a telecom network operators solution, we begin by identifying what we will find at the cell sites themselves. In most large telecom networks, you will have a variety of makes and models of equipment. Consider the issue ofPowerdescribed above. You could have a solar array in a very remote tower location, a diesel generator for primary power or emergency back-up, DC rectifiers, and AC or DC meters for customer billing.
