Elisa’s Key Objectives for NOC cooperation
• Improving the quality of service experienced by the end-users & reducing the repair costs caused by truck rolls
• Sorting out faults, to the extent possible, from the control room
• Anticipating capacity constraints before they become noticeable to the customers
• Reducing costs of repairs carried out in the field, speeding up such repairs and improving the final quality of service

Scope of the cooperation
• Teleste's Network Operations Center, NOC, monitors Elisa's entire CATV/cablemodem network
• All glitches are analysed by NOC before any remedial operations in the field are launched. If possible, issues are corrected through remote maintenance
• Teleste's Element Management System (EMS) allows locating quickly any network faults and guiding the field technician directly to the relevant spot
• Disruptions can be minimised by preventing the fault from spreading in the network and limiting its scope
• Teleste takes care of the Capacity Management and monitoring of the network components

• Monitoring of several production systems, such as CMTS and EMS
• Sending the defects requiring repair in the field over to the contractor's work queue
• Technical support and guidance for the fault repair contractor working in the field
• Monitoring and further development of network quality
