Telecommunications

Next generation
Intelligent Cell Site solution:

The combination of IoT and edge computing enables
operators to bring their passive infrastructure operations under full control and supports the digital transformation of cell site operations.

Visibility: Passive infrastructure is often diverse and aged with upgrades carried out over many years to support network evolution. Real-time visibility of asset details, location, and condition - irrespective of vendor and communication protocol - provides invaluable insights and enables operators to transition from traditional preventative maintenance regimes to modern and efficient predictive maintenance practices.

Control: Passive infrastructure often has either no remote management capability, monitoring-only or proprietary management systems that make it impossible to implement site-wide policies. IoT with edge computing enables operators to control devices remotely to reduce site visits.

Automation: Sensors, intelligent gateways and machine learning all combine to enable the automation of routine tasks. Systems can be configured to respond intelligently to local conditions in real-time, helping maximize the results of policies
such as energy conservation.

Business Challenges that we Solve


Key features of the theSingular IoT
Intelligent Cell Site solution

Our Intelligent Cell Site solution is specifically designed to handle the vast amounts of data generated by the passive infrastructure in a nationwide network and to deliver the business value and rapid payback that operators demand.


  • Device, protocol and manufacturer agnostic for universal passive infrastructure compatibility
  • Retrofittable in 2 to 6 hours with no ‘rip and replace’ of existing equipment
  • Configurable via more than 20 pre-defined use cases so no coding required With powerful Edge Computing to tame data and execute locally without delay or cloud-computing costs
  • Uses intelligent Machine Learning to diagnose issues and direct alarms to appropriate teams
  • Built-in data visualization tools such as Geographic Information System maps and Digital Twins to bring cell site data to life

Transform your Cell Site with BUSINESS CASE Intelligent Cell Site - IoT 

Benefits of our Approach

  • Ensures that the project remains focussed on business value impact throughout
  • Describes the value the project in financial terms for non-technical audience
  • Enables executives to evaluate the proposal against other projects competing for the same purse

How we deliver business value with our Intelligent Cell Site solution


Why is the Business Case so important? According to research carried out by CapGemini*, almost half of all IoT projects failed to make it past the proof of concept phase due to the lack of a clear business case. That’s why business case development begins early in our engagement model.

Our Approach

Because our solution can directly integrate with initiatives such as Operational Efficiency, Carbon Footprint Reduction and Digital Transformation, it's important to gain executive support early. We do this by illustrating the business value potential of our Intelligent Cell Site solution and providing a live demonstration of a working system to establish the credibility of the solution. Next, we initiate a program of joint discovery to document the customer context, capture requirements, configure the solution and quantify the benefits in financial terms. The initial business case produced, sets out the Total Cost of Ownership for the proposed solution together with the projected Payback Period, Internal Rate of Return and Net Present Value for a given roll-out scenario or scenarios. The next phase is a Proof of Value (POV) exercise, consisting of a limited deployment of sites with the selected use cases. This exercise allows both parties to monitor the performance of the solution against the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that underpin the business case assumptions. Finally, the POV results are used to update the business case projections and a final business case is produced together with a formal proposal with full costings, roll-out strategy and benefits realization plan.

Our theSingular® telecommunications solutions will increase your organization’s business efficiencies and reduce down time due to infrastructure maintenance and replacement. The IoT.nxt® solution is overlaid into existing infrastructure ensuring there is no down time and disruption to your productivity.
