1.1 Introduction
The PNMT is a Pasolink Network Management Terminal developed by NEC for
management of NECs Pasolink radio transmission network and associated plan. The
PNMT is a scaled down version of Pasolink Network Management System (PNMS) that is
designed as a maintenance tool for field engineers to locally and remotely monitor alarms,
control points, generate repots, and archive data, all within a familiar graphical user
interface, and all in real time. The PNMT is a Mobile laptop computer fitted with NEC PNMT
software package that interfaces and controls NEC PASOLINK series short haul radio
equipment. Moreover, PNMT can control and monitor NEC radio equipment
(2500S/2600S/2000S/3000S/3500S) types except for PASOLINK series and other
manufactures equipment by using MIU(Management Interface Unit).
This Windows-NT/98

based software package remote monitors and controls the status
and configuration of an entire Network Element network with associated equipment as well
as the performance of the actual microwave links.
