Integral Systems Introduces Next Generation Remote Site Management Solution to Reduce Network Management Costs and Increase Netw
June 21 2011 - 8:45AM
Integral Systems, Inc., (Nasdaq:ISYS) announced today at the
CommunicAsia 2011 exhibition and conference in Singapore, that its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Newpoint Technologies, has introduced
Mercury G3 Remote Site Manager. This next generation remote site
manager is a cost-effective solution for managing manned and
unmanned remote sites to provide complete visibility into site
status by interfacing with all site equipment. Providing complete
visibility into remote sites reduces or eliminates costly
unscheduled visits caused by equipment failures or communications
problems.
For unmanned remote sites, or sites requiring high
availability, Mercury G3 is equipped with high speed, solid state
hard drives in a RAID configuration, has redundant power supplies
(both AC and DC) and can be equipped with its own UPS system to
shut down the unit and facility in an orderly manner during a power
failure. It supports both in-band and out-of-band (dial-up, GSM,
Cellular or satellite modems) communications between the Operations
Center and remote site, and allows for both primary and multiple
backup communications to the site. Mercury G3's modular design
provides flexibility to configure the unit based upon unique
interface requirements at each remote site (serial, DI/DO,
Ethernet, SNMP, etc.).
"In today's competitive landscape, network
providers are under increased pressure to reduce costs and maximize
resources, while at the same time increase Quality of Service (QoS)
under very tight Service Level Agreements (SLA)," said Wally
Martland, President of Newpoint Technologies. "Mercury G3 Remote
Site Manager provides a comprehensive view of critical site
equipment, giving operators the ability to recover the site without
costly site visits, thereby reducing network management costs and
increasing network availability."
The backbone of Mercury G3 is Newpoint
Technologies' COMPASS™ Network Management System (NMS) software,
which is used to manage remote site equipment and take full
advantage of COMPASS' award winning features in a compact element
management solution. COMPASS provides a local web-based GUI for
technicians while on site and a graphical scripting engine that
enables network operators to automate recovery tasks and other
commonly performed routines, such as uplink power control and
redundancy switching.
Martland continued, "Mercury G3 is the culmination
of approximately 10 years of experience of fielding the first and
second generation Mercury product at more than 1,700 unmanned
remote sites. Our remote site management product line is completely
software configurable and includes a high-availability option to
ensure critical systems meet specified reliability
requirements."
For current Mercury customers, Mercury G3 is
compatible with existing cabling infrastructure and uses the same
pinouts used with previous generation Mercury products, making it
easy to upgrade to Mercury G3 without costly cabling changes.
Mercury G3 was designed in partnership with
Lumistar, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Integral Systems.
Lumistar's expertise in designing commercial-based, board-level
telemetry products that are included in Mercury G3 was instrumental
in providing much of the additional power and flexibility that
customers can now access.
Integral Systems and its family of companies –
including Newpoint Technologies – will be exhibiting at
CommunicAsia 2011, being held June 21 through 24 at the Marina Bay
Sands Convention Center, Marina Bay Sands, Singapore. For

Site Manager and COMPASS NMS, please visit booth 1R1-01.
