Abstract
A system and method for detecting and reporting telecommunications antenna identification data to a remote user location is presented. A telecommunications antenna module is provided for storing and transmitting antenna serial number, part number, version, firmware, production date, and other relevant data to a network operator over AISG and/or 3 GPP compliant communications systems. The module consists of a printed circuit board mounting a programmable device capable of storing and transmitting programmed antenna information. The module is adapted for connecting to antenna communications cables using either AISG cable splitter or in-line in a daisy chain fashion. The module is capable of connecting in-line with another antenna monitoring device to connect to the antenna. The device is programmed either in the field by a field technician or by the antenna manufacturer.
