1Bayly Bringing Networks Together Remote
Management Control Systems From isolated
networks accessible only by a manned truck roll
to completely managed networks that allow remote
control from your cell phone - how do you get the
right information to the right person at the
right time without compromising your network?

to know? Who do you want to hear it from?

Smoke Signals vs Gigabit Ethernet
5Centralized vs Distributed Intelligence
6Centralized Intelligence
- Collects alarms
- Reports status
- Reports network performance/availability
- Makes decisions, takes actions
- Can be as sophisticated as you can afford
Network Operations Center
7Distributed Intelligence the virtual technician
- Resides at the site
- Collects and processes information
- Reports status
- To multiple management systems
- To appropriate person by email or text
- Makes decisions
- Takes action
- Reports network performance/availability
- Audit trail and network security
- Integrated
- Ethernet Switch
- RS232 terminal server
- Discrete alarm inputs
- Analog alarm inputs
- Control outputs
- Event response
- Decision scripting
- Protocol conversion
- T1 performance/availability statistics
- Report Status
- Multiple backhaul options
- Cyber security
- Audit trail
8Centralized Intelligence vs Distributed
Intelligence
- Requires link to the site for alarms and control
- Roll-out across whole system
- Resides on a PC or server
- Software status vs Telnet
- What are you really seeing
- Can operate with or without and NMS/OSS
- Will use backup phone or cell call to report
alarms - Can send message directly to technician
- Implement on site-by-site basis
- Connect to any/all equipment
- Consolidates management channels
9NMS What are you actually seeing
- Software status vs Telnet
- What is the real status

18Solving Problems vs Network-wide Deployment
- Manage Generators
- Reduce cost, increase life of equipment, increase
network availability - Eliminate fuel theft
- Network Resiliency/network triage
- Strengthen networks
- Recovery faster after a disaster
- Remotely reset equipment
- Reduce site visits
- Manage equipment, connect to legacy gear
- Reduce site visits, reduce network downtime
- Energy conservation
- Reduce cost, increase life of equipment
- Routine maintenance
- Increase life of equipment, increase network
availability - Network performance
- Manage SLAs, quickly identify problems
- Security cyber and physical
- Reduce injury and theft, increase network
reliability, cyber audit trail - Manage construction equipment
19The Business Case for Remote Monitoring, Alarms
and Control of the telecom infrastructure
- Reduce Travel Time 40-50
- Increase Tech time 17-20
- Reduce MTTR 30-35
- Reduce Preventative Maintenance visits 28-30
- Reduce Maintenance Cost 25-27
- Reduce Multiple visits cause 38 of Truck Rolls
- Reduce Revisits cause 18 of Truck Rolls
- Increase Uptime 0.5 - 1
- Increase Revenue up to 20
- Increase Network Capacity up to 0.25
- ROI 9-12 Months
20Smart Network
- Remote Site Gateway
- Solves Problems
- Frees up resources
- Offers a tangible glimpse into the network of the
future - Creates a foundation for a Smart Resilient
Network
21Centralized Intelligence vs Distributed
Intelligence
- Central Intelligence
- Can provide elaborate graphical visuals of
network status - Can provide simple click and connect remote
access - Needs an RMAC-type device(s) to connect to
everything at the site - Cannot manage a site when the link is down
- Is only cost effective on a network-wide
deployment - Is a company-wide commitment
- Distributed Intelligence
- Doesnt need any kind of Central Intelligence
- Will manage the site when the link goes down
- Will provide cyber security and audit trail of
site access - Will notify the right person with the right
information - Will provide remote access and control to all
types of devices - Can work with and report back to any SNMP-based
system - Solves problems on a site-by-site basis
- Reduces cost and improves resource utilization on
a network-wide basis - Provides an IP foundation for the network to
evolve
