In remote, harsh locations where many masts are located, communication is liable to fail regularly, although RTUs can manage this.

In addition, because RTUs do everything locally, it means if communications break down, they continue to run and act autonomously, whilst maintaining a historical log, and reporting back later. This is achievable due to the RTU system’s ability to provide accurate, real time data allowing asset management teams to make better, more informed decisions. The benefit of using RTUs in the broadcast and telecoms sector is it helps reduce downtime and enables more efficient preventive maintenance scheduling. RTU benefits: Less downtime, easier maintenance

Safety and efficiency are key priorities, too, but organizations also have legitimate concerns about security breaches. One of the most important demands for telemetry systems in the broadcast sector is establishing a reliable communication network.
