With growing success of smart phones such as the Iphone and similar, the demand for data has rocketed? At the same time the expectations of consumers for a high performant 3G network to satisfy their need for data increases too.
While call drops can be monitored from a central location, an online experience from an end-user perspective is something that can't be measured from a central NOC. ServersCheck monitors 24x7x365 the mobile data network at the BTS as experienced by web surfers.
To monitor data network, ServersCheck performs following checks at regular intervals:
Latency: by connecting to an outside server ServersCheck checks the server response time
URL: for this check ServersCheck retrieves a predefined web page and measures the page download time.
The BTS Monitoring Appliance can not only monitor 3G Data but also voice & SMS as outlined in this section.
