Comba Telecom Systems has been selected by Telefónica Móviles Chile S.A to supply a network optimization solution to manage and optimize its multi-vendor remote electrical tilt (RET) antennas in its network. The project is notable in being the first ever RET supervision system implemented in Latin America.
Working with local partner, Interexport Chile, Comba’s solution will include the provision of antenna remote control units (RCUs), central control units (CCUs) to interface with multiple RET antennas, and installation of Comba’s proprietary Comba Electrical Tilt Software (COMETS) that allows remote management of the antennas from a single interface and seamlessly integrates with major third party network status management tools to close the optimization cycle efficiently.

Movistar goes to court, fights deactivation of unregistered mobile numbers
Telefónica Móviles México has started a legal action to obtain a court order against the deactivation of lines that were not registered in the Mobile Phone Users National Registry (Renaut), local newspaper El Universal reports.
America Movil, via its Mexican unit Telcel, has recently obtained a provisional court order against the suspension of unregistered mobile lines.
On 9 April, Telefónica Móviles México announced it will maintain the unregistered mobile phone lines active, even after the 10 April deadline, and that – if necessary – it will go to court in defence of its subscribers. However, Mexican telecommunications regulator Cofetel urged Movistar to comply with the law and suspend service to mobile customers who have not registered their numbers in the Renaut database by 10 April, or face penalties. Telefónica Móviles México now hopes to obtain a provisional court order absolving it from cutting off service to customers who have not provided proof of identity.
