Introducing TowerLytics - The New Product by Summit Technology
Summit Technology Group, a leading provider of broadcast engineering services, has unveiled a new product – TowerLytics. This IP-based remote monitoring and control platform is tailored specifically for broadcasters, offering a solution to manage critical broadcast infrastructure such as transmitters, tower lighting systems, and environmental sensors from a secure, centralized interface [1].
Key Features of TowerLytics
TowerLytics boasts several key features that make it an invaluable tool for broadcasters. It integrates seamlessly with SNMP-enabled equipment, offering precise and flexible monitoring. Real-time telemetry and alarm status reporting for transmitters and tower lights ensure constant vigilance over the broadcast infrastructure. Additionally, environmental sensor data collection allows for monitoring site conditions [1].
Two deployment models cater to different station capabilities: the Self-Monitored Plan, which provides full platform access for stations with in-house technical staff, and the Summit-Managed Plan, an additional service to Summit's broadcast engineering maintenance plans, offering 24/7 monitoring and response by Summit’s broadcast engineers [1].
Benefits of TowerLytics
The benefits of TowerLytics are manifold. It enables broadcasters to stay connected remotely to their critical broadcast assets from anywhere. By delivering actionable data, it supports proactive management and quick response to alarms or issues. Furthermore, it enhances operational efficiency and reliability of broadcast infrastructure [1].
TowerLytics offers flexibility, providing self-managed or fully managed monitoring options to suit various station capabilities. This platform aligns with modern broadcast operation needs, emphasizing secure, real-time data access and control to maintain broadcast uptime and compliance effectively [1].
Deployment Models
The TowerLytics product is available in two deployment models: the Self-Monitored Plan and the Summit-Managed Plan. The Self-Monitored Plan requires stations to have dedicated technical staff for monitoring and control, while the Summit-Managed Plan does not, as it includes 24/7 monitoring and response by Summit's broadcast engineers as part of its service [1].
