Network Status

Fragmented Engineering Applications Are a Major Cause of Inefficiency.

With a typical operator using 100-200 systems, tools and scripts every day to visualize, analyze and optimize the Radio Access Network (RAN), a day in the life of typical engineer is highly manual, with 30% or more of their time spent managing data across multiple software interfaces. With data traffic and network complexity growing, an imminent or current 4G rollout, and hiring restrictions and OPEX reduction pressures, this inefficiency has become a sore spot for many operators.

Get More Efficient with our "Network Cockpit."

To address this challenge Actix has developed a solution for visualizing Network Status, which our customers have nicknamed the "Network Cockpit". This solution is delivered on our highly scalable ActixOne optimization platform, which provides a web-based GUI and support for massive volumes of mobile network data including network OSS, subscriber trace, drive survey and planning databases.

Web-based Network Visualization dashboard and sample layers

Rich visualization capabilities including maps and charts The "Network Cockpit" enables mobile network data to be viewed in map, chart and table views or in automatically scheduled reports. A powerful query engine enables users to perform sophisticated searches by geography, network element, neighbor relation, data source or KPI value, and then visualize the results in one of the available views. Cockpit views may be tailored to different needs from planning and optimization engineers to managers to network executives. In actual deployments, the solution has delivered efficiency gains of 30% across network optimization teams by reducing the need to manually manage data processing and by consolidating the majority of visualization, querying and reporting tasks into a single interface. Furthermore, multiple customers have standardized and accelerated their management and executive reporting, enabling more timely management level decision making.
