1 Getting Started

1.1 Introduction
The PNMT is a computer-based PASOLINK Network Management Terminal system
developed by NEC for management of NEC’s PASOLINK wireless transmission network.
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 reports, and archive data, all within a familiar graphical user
interface, and all in real time. Throughout this manual, “the PNMT” generally refers to the
mobile laptop computer in which the NEC PNMT software package (that interfaces and
controls NEC PASOLINK series short haul wireless equipment) is installed in.
This software package remotely monitors and controls the status and configuration of an
entire PASOLINK network with associated equipment as well as the performance of the
actual microwave links.
