According to the company’s Head of Product Management, Keith Manston, Siemens
OMUs are designed to give optimum performance and when used with 3G wireless
networks they offer a number of benefits. ‘In addition to the reduced cost of installation,
running costs can be significantly lower than traditional connections’, he said.
The newly released option is available to upgrade any existing Gemini 2 OMUs and where
Gemini 1 units exist the company also offers a cost effective means to upgrade those to
Gemini 2 before adding the 3G communications option, which is provided by the use of an
approved 3G router and antenna kit which is easy and quick to install.
Siemens RMS is an easy to use and highly reliable facility, enabling the efficient
monitoring and management of a wide range of on-street equipment. The system features
a PC based instation, which allows operators to view the status of all monitored
equipment at a glance, using a fully user customisable map-based display.
Equipment monitoring is performed by Siemens OMUs which can easily be installed in
most equipment housings. As well as providing the optimum solution for monitoring
applications, the system may be used to remotely control various equipment including
Variable Message Signs.
