Device & Network Management

Device Management

Selcomm provides complete Device Management for a very broad range of phones and other device types with an easy-to-use standardised method. Here are examples of the functions that are available:

Here are examples of the functions that are available:

  • Device Configuration – Understanding the exact configuration of each device
  • Device Firmware Upgrades – Keeping firmware up-to-date for specialised devices
  • Device On-Boarding – Loading devices onto the system
  • Device Tracking – Locating devices where necessary and with the appropriate on-board features
  • Device Message Configuration – Messages to and from devices using standard protocols
  • Device Time Sync – Synchronising device time clocks for crucial applications
  • Device Inventory – Keeping track of the numbers and types of devices deployed (and locations if needed)
  • Device Distribution – Getting devices to the right place, at the right time

In mobile phone networks, much of this functionality is managed by existing systems or by the phone manufacturer. However, there are many other devices in networks, such as modems or Data Collection or Concentration Units, where these functions may be crucial to sustained network and indeed solution performance.

As with all Selcomm modules, where specific functionality is provided by other systems, the Selcomm Integration Module provides an easy method of accessing or providing the data as required. We understand that you may have systems in place that deliver specific needs, and that these are not going to be replaced. Therefore, we fit in with those systems, providing the functionality that you need without burdening you with software you don’t want. Just use the parts you require to augment your existing solution.

Of course, Selcomm manages all these functions so you can deploy it as a complete solution as well.

Network Management

Selcomm provides a robust Network Management Module to look after the key elements of the various networks and interfaces required to deliver a comprehensive and integrated solution

Increased competition is forcing networks into shorter product release cycles. Increased product offerings cause increased administrative complexity. To succeed, Service Providers must be able to respond to these demands rapidly and safely.

Selcomm provides a complete solution.

Selcomm’s Network Management Module maintains a common interface for all Selcomm modules to external carrier systems. The Carrier Integration module standardises all data and command feeds so there is consistency within Selcomm across the system processes for each carrier or wholesaler system. This allows an existing user to select a new service quickly and easily, because the basic functionality within Selcomm remains the same.

No matter what type of Carrier mediation is available to the Service Providers, all data and command feeds remain constant within Selcomm whilst meeting the business specification demanded by the Carrier.

Selcomm achieves redundant, highly scalable performance by implementing a loosely coupled component based application overlaying an advanced messaging backbone.

Selcomm Network Integration provides a comprehensive suite of interfaces to manage services from myriad sources, fully integrated across the Selcomm suite.
