What does PTS stand for?

Physical layer network-management data can improve network performance and reduce operational expenses through: * real-time notification and location capabilities; * pinpointing of a potential trouble source, and seeing the implications of any proposed infrastructure changes; * focusing less on putting out fires, and more on proactive maintenance and network optimization; * centralizing IT operations without losing control of on-site crews, and without compromising security; * allowing the organization to outsource network management altogether, while maintaining flexibility and high-level control; and * reducing the potential for unauthorized activities.
