Core Network Operations

Simplify your operations with a single point of plan enforcement, use high granularity measurements to understand subscriber QoE, and save time for your core network team.

Simplify Your Network Operations

Our QoE Optimized Plan Enforcement helps simplify your work by providing a single point of enforcement across technologies and vendors.

This reduces integration complexity and makes it easier to introduce new vendors and models to the network.

You can have multiple inline elements but all are viewed through one combined interface, providing you a single logical point for enforcement across the network.

Truly Understand the Subscriber Experience

Preseem takes high granularity subscriber traffic-based QoE measurements and ties them directly back to the topology, all without adding traffic to the network.

These network/transport layer QoE measurements help surface many causes of a poor quality of experience. You’ll also be able to quickly identify if an issue is network-wide or specific to one subscriber. Examples of problems we’ll help you isolate include:

Overloaded backhauls and APs
In-home Wi-Fi problems
Bad bonded link configs
Overloaded routers
Bad optical cables

Get the Information You Need Quickly

Our cloud-based architecture provides a centralized view across all vendors, models and inline elements, so there’s no need to log in to different locations or servers to see different parts of the network.

Also, our subscriber topology and element search capabilities mean your team can quickly jump to information and metrics associated with any subscriber on any access technology element (e.g. access point).

Reduce Your Integration Burden

Our Automatic Access Network Discovery can also help save time by:

Requiring less provisioning information, making integration easier and reducing TCO
Improving subscriber and topology mapping accuracy for Preseem use cases
Allowing your team to audit provisioning information in other systems using Preseem data

"We’ve been able to lower our churn rate, increase our customer satisfaction, decrease our call volume. It’s just all around made us more efficient. Customers are happy, we’re more profitable."

Fiber ONT Rx Power vs. Length Over Seven Days

by Dan Siemon | Nov 25, 2024 | Access Network Operations, Core Network Operations, Networking

ONT Rx Power vs. Fiber Length Over Time This post is the last in our short series exploring light levels (signal strength) in PON fiber networks. In the first post, we looked at Rx power vs. fiber length. The second post explored attenuation (Tx power minus Rx power)...

Tower Density and Frequency Reuse in Tarana Deployments

by Scot Loach | Nov 21, 2024 | Access Network Operations, Core Network Operations, Networking

Introduction Tarana’s G1 technology brings regional ISPs a powerful tool for delivering high-speed broadband connectivity to subscribers that did not have this option before. However, deployment choices—such as the number of sectors per tower and frequency reuse...

How to Use Network Metrics to Deliver Business Value At WISPAPALOOZA 2024 in Las Vegas this October, Preseem co-founder and CTO Scot Loach delivered a presentation called Analyzing Network Data. This video is a re-recording of that session and focuses on four...

Fiber Attenuation vs. Fiber Length

by Dan Siemon | Nov 8, 2024 | Access Network Operations, Core Network Operations, Networking

Fiber Attenuation and Length for Adtran and Calix A few weeks ago, I posted an analysis of signal strength vs distance in fiber (PON) networks based on a random sampling of ONT stats in Preseem. This is what that looks like for Adtran and Calix respectively. After...

Tarana Connected Clients vs. RF Utilization

by Scot Loach | Nov 5, 2024 | Access Network Operations, Core Network Operations, Networking

Connected Clients vs. RF Utilization on Tarana At Preseem, we collect a lot of data from ISP access networks to help operators move from reactive to proactive operations and make their teams more efficient. Tarana is a recent entrant to the world of Fixed Wireless,...

Urban and Rural FWA Deployments

by Jeremy Austin | Oct 22, 2024 | Access Network Operations, Core Network Operations, Networking

Exploring FWA Deployments by Population Density As a (now mostly former) wireless ISP operator, I’ve noted that rural, sparsely populated service areas often need subsidies to combat a difficult ROI. Government subsidies are both complicated and controversial. Using...

Network Metrics to Track by Team

by Neil McDonald | Oct 3, 2024 | Access Network Operations, Core Network Operations, Networking

Network Metrics: The Challenge Due to budget or staff size restrictions, regional fixed wireless, fiber, and hybrid ISPs are often stuck taking a reactive approach to network and subscriber management. This means dealing with multiple vendor systems and piecing...
