Cyient company launches Global Tower Operations Centre (TOC) in Hyderabad

Hyderabad, Dec 21: Cyient Limited company has announced the opening of its global Tower Operations Centre (TOC) on Thursday at the company's headquarters here.

The IoT-enabled TOC provides 24/7 surveillance and remotely monitors all passive assets in cell towers across multiple locations, the company said in a statement.

The Internet of things (IoT) is a network of physical devices, vehicles, home appliances and other items embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators, and network connectivity which enables these objects to connect and exchange data.

The TOC's solution architecture enables communication between sensors and an integrated, cloud-based analytics engine to extract and analyze asset data for actionable insights, it said. This results in an increased tower uptime, reduced operational costs, improved site security and intrusion detection, and ensures efficient energy and power management, the release said.

Additionally, integrating trouble ticketing, along with field force management, will improve the efficiency of field operations and optimise asset utilization, it further said.

Sanjay Krishna, the senior vice president, communications, and president, the Asia Pacific at Cyient, said the integrated TOC solution facilitates tower and infrastructure companies to perform real-time monitoring of all active information from remote sites.
