Description

Cisco's Evolved Programmable Network Manager (EPNM) offers a streamlined approach to multilayer management and combines various functions into one cohesive system. This innovative manager is specifically crafted for both element and network management solutions, enabling comprehensive lifecycle management that caters to carrier-grade networks, regardless of their size. Organizations can enhance their operational agility and efficiency through features like automated device handling, rapid service provisioning, and proactive network assurance. By shortening the time required to launch network services, as well as accelerating the deployment of new devices or feature updates, businesses can stay ahead of the competition. The platform also facilitates the delivery of timely, domain-specific information independently from the management system. Furthermore, it allows for quicker resolution of network problems and rapid identification of impacted circuits and virtual connections through the automation of service provisioning. Users gain the advantage of a unified information model, consistent workflows, a user-friendly interface, and simplified deployment processes. With integrated management capabilities that cover the entire carrier network and support various domains, the solution is ready for immediate implementation, setting the stage for enhanced productivity and operational success. Additionally, the focus on seamless integration ensures that businesses can adapt swiftly to evolving network demands.

Description

Providing top-notch services like programming content, live sports streaming, data backhaul, and rapid data access via satellite is essential for your operations. Current management tools hinder your ability to enhance these services, as they only display isolated performance metrics from a vast array of devices—such as modems, Antenna Control Units (ACUs), High Power Amplifiers (HPAs), and other equipment across the teleport and network—without pinpointing which specific devices are crucial for delivering particular services to designated customers. Additionally, the necessity of various, disconnected toolsets for different technologies complicates matters further; for instance, Monitor & Control (M&C) systems are used for RF equipment, management systems for VSAT networks, Network Management Systems (NMS) for IP equipment, and Carrier Monitoring Systems (CMS) for managing carriers. This fragmentation complicates the process of diagnosing and addressing the underlying causes of issues, ultimately impacting service reliability and customer satisfaction. Consequently, a unified approach to management tools is essential for streamlining operations and improving service delivery.
