How can that be?
The positive news about efficient subscription billing is that, once CSPs have hooked up a new revenue stream, they shouldn’t need to be overly concerned with cash flow. But, if those accounts are not properly configured to capture all
the component charges—fees, taxes and surcharges—providers will leave profit on the table every month. In extreme cases, certain accounts will become outright money losers.
That’s not what CSPs went into business for.
To make the most of this unique situation, CSPs need to make sure they have configurable automated tools to set up accounts for maximum profitability. That means having robust CPQ capabilities and, most importantly, a subscription billing platform equipped to handle all of the

with alert systems
to minimize response
times to a disconnected
phone line.” – Bill Heideman, President, Viking Electronics
When the voltage on an analog phone line monitored by the LVR-1 drops below 2 Volts, the LVR-1 begins a countdown timer. This variable length timer can be programmed
to avoid false alarms. Once the threshold is reached, two onboard relay contacts activate signaling connected devices of a non- working or disconnected phone line.
This same variable length timer is also used to prevent multiple alert signals should the line go in and out of service.
The LVR-1 can be paired with Viking’s auto dialers, tone generators and lights for a comprehensive alert system. It can also
be used to switch telecom devices with a backup phone line.
