Effectively monitoring and managing the traffic loads of base stations is one way that service providers can reduce network energy consumption and OPEX.

Nokia Siemens Networks’ NetAct™ Service Quality Manager (SQM) software solution manages available capacity when traffic loads are low.
NetAct’s night power saving function allows service providers to manage power consumption during times of high and low traffic. NetAct controls base station power consumption automatically based on pre-configured settings.
The powerful correlation capabilities of NetAct can be used to define a flexible rule of logic to control power settings individually for each base station in the network.

- NetAct controls base stations automatically according to pre-configured setting
- Eliminates need to maintain activation/de-activation times
- Traffic patterns can be managed from network down to individual base station level
- Self-updates hourly based on current data and alarms
- Manages reactivation and ensures start-up is successful

- Power savings achieved controlling each BTS
- Extensive checks ensure faultless operation
- Easy to set/maintain thanks to pre-loaded power saving model
- Accommodates specific needs/maximum flexibility
