Network Management System
NmPLUS is a Web-based Network Management System (NMS) installed at the Utility’s Network Operation Center (NOC). Designed to monitor and manage the traffic on the network, the system also provides diagnostic information regarding the network units. Equipped with advanced flexible QoS functionality, NmPLUS manages the traffic bandwidth, allowing maximum/dedicated data throughput and data prioritization. The system’s standard- based CRM capabilities allow simple connection to any existing Utility OSS system.
With its user-friendly interface, NmPLUS also provides the basis for a variety of Smart Grid management applications. Useful features enable the display of geographical maps and unit graphics, as well as the filtering and correlation of AMR polled data and events.
