The shares held in escrow are distributable over three years following the closing.

Funny thing.. TKO is really the only stock I have in the green at present. Everything else is bombing. I personally think we're are at or near to bottom price right now for TKO. The last drop took out all of the weak and faint of heart. Patience is now a key player in this and several other stocks that have technologies that are on the cusp of going to greatness...or not. Management has a lot to do with it and TKO's recent moves were positive I believe and rewarded with a pps increase. I hope and pray to hear good news over the next 6 months and see a slow steady price growth. Too fast invites too many short timers, too slow makes it a less than interesting investment. There is a fine line. Our naysayers can bad mouth all they want, but the commitment has been made to steer the company in a more positive direction. Truly, only time will tell. I think Walrus has a good idea: take a vacation from the stock prices and see what things look like after a good vacation or just time away. Just one person who has some positive expectations.
Good investing!
Market in full retreat. Dow breaking down 12,500 likely and soon, i'll bet.
BSD
There is not much to talk about---pps is up 7 cents today, so far...but,all must wait for the next 'event'....Meeting the new people is HIGH on my wish list...either via CC or something like the Meet the CEO interview format. ALSO on my list is an announcement or two that shows revenue coming in---something like a GE moving forward annuncement, or an EDS forward announcement...
It makes sense to me, that with the new COO and the new EVP, time is being spent right now getting things 'organized' within TKO---wouldn;t you think so? It is only after my house gts a good cleaning up, that I invite company over....silly analogy, I know, but it just makes sense to me.

Commentary
The Rise, Fall (And Return?) Of Reg FD
Nicolas Morgan 08.14.07, 6:00 AM ET
In the nearly two years since a landmark federal court ruling, SEC vs. Siebel Systems, on Sept. 1, 2005, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has not brought, settled or contested a single Reg FD enforcement case.
This ruling by a federal district court in Manhattan dealt a body blow to the SEC's attempt to police what it called "selective disclosures" by publicly traded companies through enforcement of Regulation FD or "Fair Disclosure." With the second anniversary of the Siebel Systems case approaching, now is an appropriate time to assess where Reg FD enforcement is today.
Perhaps, as a host of interested parties--including the Securities Industry Association, the American Bar Association and the Bond Market Association--noted when Reg FD was proposed, the rule is an unnecessary tool in light of changing corporate practices and well-established insider trading laws. Or perhaps the SEC has "raised the bar" and will bring another Reg FD case in only the most egregious circumstances.
In October 2000, the SEC adopted Reg FD in response to the perception that public companies were "disclosing important nonpublic information, such as advance warnings of earnings results, to securities analysts or selected institutional investors or both, before making full disclosure of the same information to the general public."
In adopting the regulation, the SEC disregarded comments that (1) rule making was too broad a response to the issue, (2) the SEC could use existing legal tools such as insider trading laws to address the issue, (3) most issuers were already voluntarily improving their disclosure practices, and (4) the regulation would have a "chilling effect" on companies, resulting in less rather than more disclosure.
Two years later, in November 2002, the SEC announced a settled action against Siebel Systems in which the company paid a $250,000 civil penalty for statements made by its CEO at an invitation-only technology conference in 2001. Allegedly, the CEO made positive comments that were at odds with negative statements about the company's business made in a public conference call three weeks earlier.
Six months after settling with the SEC, in April 2003, Siebel's CFO attended a private meeting with institutional investors and allegedly made positive comments about Siebel's business activity levels and transaction pipeline that materially contrasted with negative public statements Siebel made about its business in the preceding several weeks. About one year later, in June 2004, the SEC filed a new Reg FD complaint against Siebel in federal district court in New York. This time the company chose to fight the charges rather than settle.
The result, more than a year later, was the court ruling for Siebel and against the SEC, dismissing the commission's complaint and finding that the CFO's statements to analysts were not material, nonpublic information (as required to prevail under Reg FD) because Siebel's CEO had already publicly made similar comments.
The court criticized the SEC's extreme scrutiny of the language used in the statements, noting that "such an approach places an unreasonable burden on a company's management and spokespersons to become linguistic experts, or otherwise live in fear of violating Regulation FD should the words they use later be interpreted by the SEC as connoting even the slightest variance from the company's public statements."
But the court failed to go so far as to rule Reg FD unconstitutional under the due process clause and the First Amendment to the Constitution. The court did go out of its way to criticize the SEC's overly aggressive prosecution of Reg FD, stating that "the enforcement of Regulation FD by excessively scrutinizing vague general comments has a potential chilling effect which can discourage, rather than, encourage public disclosure of material information."
Shortly afterward, the head of the SEC's Division of Corporation Finance was quoted as saying, "We will continue to bring cases. ... There are FD investigations going on right now."
However, perhaps tellingly, the SEC chose not to appeal the Siebel decision, and in a speech earlier this year, SEC Commissioner Paul Atkins described the commission's reaction to the Siebel rebuke by saying, "We took off our amateur psychologist hats, put away our microscopes and went home rather than appealing that decision."
Prior to the Siebel ruling, however, the SEC had been quite vigorous in going after alleged Reg FD violations, with periodic announcements of settled actions against public companies and their senior officers. For example:
--On Sept. 9, 2003, the SEC announced a settled case against Schering-Plough in which the company agreed to pay a $1 million penalty and the SEC alleged that Schering's senior vice president of investor relations disclosed negative, material, nonpublic information to analysts and institutional investors "through a combination of spoken language, tone, emphasis and demeanor."
--On March 24, 2005, the SEC announced another settled case, this time against Flowserve in Texas, in which the company paid a penalty of $350,000 without admitting or denying the SEC's allegations that company executives met with four investment and brokerage firms six weeks before the end of Flowserve's fiscal year. In that meeting, in response to a question about earlier earnings guidance, the CEO allegedly reaffirmed the earlier guidance rather than stating, consistent with company policy, that that earnings guidance was effective at the date given and would not be updated until the company publicly announced updated guidance. Two days later, the company did in fact reaffirm its previous estimated earnings per share.
Significantly, because these actions were settled immediately, the SEC did not have to expose its Reg FD enforcement program to the rigors of litigation.
Speculation about new Reg FD investigations has arisen most recently in connection with anonymous Internet postings by Whole Foods Market CEO John Mackey. The company has announced that it is conducting an internal investigation, and the SEC has launched an informal investigation regarding the postings.
Commentators have speculated that these investigations may examine whether the postings involved nonpublic information at odds with contemporaneous public disclosures by the company and, perhaps, whether the postings violated Reg FD. Given its experience with Siebel, the SEC is not likely to put back on its "amateur psychologist hats" and make the Whole Foods matter the next Reg FD test case.
Whatever the explanation for the SEC's long silence, Reg FD is still "on the books" and remains to be vigorously tested in the courts. We can expect the SEC to bring additional cases over time, and, in light of the Siebel Systems case, we can expect some defendants to test the validity, constitutionality and applicability of Reg FD.

There has not been a post to this board for 14 hours, has everyone given up on TKO. Granted yesterday was a poor showing following last weeks rebound.
Yep...no way this makes it below $1.50 again...we made it half way there in one day. I haven't even given my most damning critique yet of last weeks losses report. That is to come. Stay tuned. Just be sure of the fact that we are heading below $1.50 again. I predicted it once...I'll predict it again. The naysayers were wrong then, and they'll be wrong again. This company is quickly moving toward extinction like Karl Rove.

http://www.hotelmotel.com/hotelmotel/article/articleDetail.jsp?id=449078
out last friday--what is great about this is that it is yet ANOTHER site that has started to follow TKO...somethin' must be goood ........hahahahaha
http://www.stockjunction.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=14712
good morning all..and welcome to the usual moonday morning adjustments.......profit takers from last week no doubt...daytraders instead of investors is my bet--as the daytrading websites called for pulling profit yesterday....didn;t they? y'all get yours?
The market is seeing that TKO revenues of $3.1M are highly disappointing, especially when it sees that TKO needs to make about $30 to $35M to be profitable. $3.1M times four gets them about $12M. Nowhere near profitability. Then, the market also sees TKO trying to use tricky accounting tricks. They have to add in $500K of MSHI revenue to even reach $3.6M. That is like any shareholder claiming TKO revenue as its own. TKO practices voodoo economics at its best.
Down 7% today already...not looking too good. Hope everyone listened to me.
The response from the market is worse than I expected. I thought it would go down, but not this fast. Already down 6% and going lower. All the news is out on TKO and it had its ONE day in the sun, now the perpetual slow decline will continue.
As I said, heading down and quick. There is absolutely nothing to hold this stock up here. We will quickly be heading back below $1.50. Hope everyone had an opportunity to listen to me and unload this morning.
Bought on 8/1 I think that is on the long road,I'm not a flipper of stocks!GL
AH trades are, however, shown on several web sites, nasdaq, for one..I have seen them there...I use a couple of others as well...not always are the shares traded the same number amount same for all...but darned if I could, I could not find any proof that there was in fact that 500K AH trade that someone mentioned. IF true, the stock, especially with some of the 'reports; out this weekend, should give TKO a good pps increase starting in about 10 hours from now. But whther or not I can find it for myself, will not affect the pps tomorrow, anyhow....hahahahaha, I just wanted to see it for myself...that's all. ;^D
The AH trade usually set that way and not to be shown during market hours because if they do people would panic and sell.. stock would get crashed..
Here is a fairly new report company for TKO--they ahve Ethostream in it at least.
http://wrightreports.ecnext.com/coms2/reportdesc_COMPANY_879604106
I agree, agree, agree.......was that 500k AH a private trade?
Welcome to the board swanlinbar..looking at your profile tells me you are only daytrading TKO not a long..
GL to you
WHERE the heck can that big block trade be found? I CANNOT find it.
Pat from my experienced everytime I see a big blocks trade on afterhours it is usually company are selling shares..I hope this is not the case here..IMO
YEAH...I mentioned that because of the link I provided geared to the day-traders----but it looks like we have some promotional releases these past few days--new PR people?.. so my bet is there will be more buyers than sellers--AGAIN---
Pat the only time the daytrader will sell off is
if MM decide to fill the gapper..Indicators are looking up..
IMO
CEOcast report today:
The acquisitions of EthoStream and Smart Systems International allowed the company to expand its product portfolio to further diversify itself from competitors who rely on outsourcing for product development. TKO recognized the importance of EthoStream's comprehensive management platform that is backed by a dedicated in-house customer and technical support team that has a customer base of over 1900 hotel and time-share properties. As a result, the company can offer a complete line of product offerings including wireless access points and bridges, Power-over-Ethernet devices, Ethernet switches, DSL equipment and digital video recorder equipment to a large audience. Property owners using Telkonet's technology can remotely monitor and manage their high-speed Internet access system in real time to determine that their guests are receiving high quality, reliable service. The number of users on the Internet can be viewed in addition to monitoring the amount of bandwidth being consumed. Support calls can also be tracked by management to ensure employees are providing a quality customer experience, which is crucial to the viability for any company in the hospitality industry.
Other unique qualities found in the TKO system include E-Secure, an efficient, manageable digital video security solution that provides a new level of service for property security. Such a system has the capability to display and record from 1 to 16 cameras simultaneously, providing managers with rapid and easy access to their videos and recordings. With Internet use on the rise in today's high technological world, alternative wiring options that are high quality and cost-effective are a must in the residential market as well as the commercial segment. Recently Telkonet signed a deal with 1-800-905-GEEK to penetrate the small business and residential market to bring together their family of broadband networking and energy management products to such customers.
As a result of the company taking longer than anticipated to ramp revenue, the stock has been a disappointment, creating the opportunity for risk-oriented investors. Shares that fetched more than $5 in late October, currently trade for just $1.80, giving the company a valuation of just $120 million. Recently, it implemented a program to perform nearly all of its installations in-house, virtually eliminating the need for outside contractors, which should result in higher margins and meaningful cost savings. The company said last week that it expected profitability by year-end. It also said that its energy management business should grow over the coming quarters as both electric utilities and building owners seek additional ways to conserve energy. Finally, its federal government-related programs are now well underway and are accelerating and its hospitality business is winning important contracts. Since the company appears to be heading down the right path, long-overdue rewards could be heading for shareholders.
Holding from $1.40 is good, but I would get out as soon as possible on Monday. Only downside from here until at least November. This company cannot manage any favorable announcements that last longer than a day or two for a positive reaction to the stock price. After the lost report of losses, the stock went all the way from about $2.20 to $1.20. This time we are starting from $1.90 and are already down ten cents. If everything holds true to form, ninety cents isn't too far away. Be careful with this company...it has managed to take a solid technology and squander it in nothing agreements and mismanagement. Get out while the gettin is good. By the way, I'm the only one on this board that predicted the great demise of this stock when we were sitting at $2.20. Nobody else will tell you that.
You know Sirius---
Probably for a few here on Investorshub who are well informed about this I have never heard anything regarding the Uptick Rule ever. Thanks for the info Sirius. It is great reading and thanks to Larry Kudlow.
And heeeeere it is in 'english' ;^D
Uptick rule
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Uptick)
Jump to: navigation, search
The Uptick rule is a former financial regulations rule, relating to the trading of securities in the United States. The rule was eliminated by the SEC, effective July 6, 2007.
[edit] Explanation
'Uptick' is the name generally given to Rule 10a-1, under the Securities Exchange Act of 1938, which states that short selling is only permitted following a trade where the traded price was higher than the previously traded price (uptick).
On the New York Stock Exchange a short sale may only be done on an uptick or a zero plus tick (which occurs when the price is the same price as the last trade, but higher than the previous different trade).
On the NASDAQ, shorting is only allowed on the bid side when the current inside bid is not lower than the previous inside bid (i.e. a downtick).

SEC Votes on Regulation SHO Amendments and Proposals; Also Votes to Eliminate "Tick" Test
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
2007-114
Washington, D.C., June 13, 2007 - The Securities and Exchange Commission today voted to take additional steps to better safeguard investors and protect the integrity of the markets during short selling transactions by closing loopholes in Regulation SHO and further reducing persistent failures to deliver stock by the end of the standard three-day settlement period for trades.
Erik Sirri, Director of the SEC's Division of Market Regulation, said, "Today the Commission voted on steps to streamline and tighten short selling provisions so that markets and investors are better served by our rules."
1. Final Amendments to Rules 200 and 203 of Regulation SHO
The Securities and Exchange Commission voted to adopt final amendments to Rules 200 and 203 of Regulation SHO (17 CFR 242.200 and 242.203). The amendments will further reduce fails to deliver in certain equity securities by eliminating the grandfather provision. The amendments also modify the close-out requirement for fails to deliver resulting from sales of threshold securities pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 (Securities Act). In addition, the amendments update the market decline limitation referenced in Regulation SHO. The amendments will be effective 60 days from the date of publication of the amendments in the Federal Register.
Regulation SHO, which became fully effective in January 2005, provides a regulatory framework governing short sales of securities and, among other things, includes the following:
A definition of ownership for short sale purposes and a requirement to determine a short seller's net aggregate position.
A locate requirement, which requires that before accepting or effecting a short sale order, brokers and dealers must (i) borrow securities, (ii) make arrangements to borrow securities, or (iii) have a reasonable basis to believe that securities can be borrowed in order to make timely delivery.
Additional delivery or close-out requirements on designated "threshold securities." A threshold security means an equity security registered or required to file reports with the Commission for which there is an aggregate fail to deliver position for five consecutive settlement days at a registered clearing agency of 10,000 shares or more and that is equal to at least 0.5% of the issue's total shares outstanding. Where a clearing agency participant has a fail to deliver position in threshold securities that persists for 13 consecutive settlement days, the participant must take action to close out the position. Until the position is closed out, the participant, and any broker-dealer for which it clears transactions, including market makers, may not effect further short sales in the particular threshold security without borrowing or entering into a bona fide arrangement to borrow the security.
A grandfather provision that provides that the requirement to close-out fail to deliver positions in threshold securities that remain for 13 consecutive settlement days does not apply to positions that were established prior to the security becoming a threshold security or prior to the effective date of Regulation SHO. The grandfather provision was adopted because the Commission was concerned about creating volatility where there were large pre-existing fail to deliver positions.
The amendments voted on today will:
Eliminate the grandfather provision in Rule 203(b)(3)(i) so that all fail to deliver positions in threshold securities will have to be closed out within 13 consecutive settlement days, regardless of whether they occurred before the security became a threshold security.
Permit previously-excepted grandfather positions that are threshold securities on the effective date of the amendment to be closed out within 35 settlement days of the effective date of the amendment.
Amend Rule 203 of Regulation SHO to extend the close out requirement from 13 to 35 consecutive settlement days for fails to deliver resulting from sales of threshold securities pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act.
Amend Rule 200(e)(3) to (i) reference the NYSE Composite Index (NYA) instead of the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA); (ii) add language to clarify that the two-percent limitation is to be calculated in accordance with NYSE Rule 80A; and (iii) provide that the market decline limitation will remain in effect for the remainder of the trading day.
2. Proposed and Re-proposed Amendments to Regulation SHO
The Commission voted to propose amendments to Rule 200 and re-propose amendments to Rule 203 of Regulation SHO (17 CFR 242.200 and 242.203). The proposed amendments would modify the long sale marking requirements of Regulation SHO to require that broker-dealers marking a sale as "long" document the present location of the securities being sold. The re-proposed amendments are intended to further reduce fails to deliver in certain equity securities by eliminating the options market maker exception to the close-out requirement of Regulation SHO. In addition, the Commission voted to solicit comment regarding two narrowly-tailored alternatives to elimination of the options market maker exception.
The comment period for the proposals will end 30 days from the date of publication of the proposed rules in the Federal Register.
The options market maker exception provides that any fail to deliver position in a threshold security resulting from short sales effected by a registered options market maker to establish or maintain a hedge on options positions that were created before the underlying security became a threshold security do not have to be closed out. Today's proposed amendments would eliminate this exception to the close-out requirement of Regulation SHO. In addition, the proposed amendments to eliminate the options market maker exception would include a one-time 35 consecutive settlement day phase-in period for previously-excepted fail to deliver positions.
3. Amendments to Rule 10a-1 and Regulation SHO
The Commission voted to adopt amendments to Rule 10a-1 (17 CFR 240.10a-1) and Regulation SHO (17 CFR 242.200 et seq.) that will remove Rule 10a-1 as well as any short sale price test of any self-regulatory organization (SRO). In addition, the amendments will prohibit any SRO from having a price test. The amendments will also include a technical amendment to Rule 200(g) of Regulation SHO that will remove the "short exempt" marking requirement of that rule. The amendments will be effective immediately upon publication of the release in the Federal Register.
The Commission adopted Rule 10a-1 in 1938 after several years of considering the effects of short selling in a declining market. Rule 10a-1 provides that, subject to certain exceptions, a security may be sold short (A) at a price above the price at which the immediately preceding sale was effected (plus tick), or (B) at the last sale price if it is higher that the last different price (zero-plus tick). Short sales are not permitted on minus ticks or zero-minus ticks, subject to narrow exceptions. The operation of these provisions is commonly described as the "tick test." The tick test applies only to listed securities, other than Nasdaq-listed securities, traded on an exchange, or otherwise.
In addition to the tick test of Rule 10a-1, the NASD and Nasdaq have adopted their own short sale price tests based on the last bid rather than on the last reported sale for purposes of determining the execution prices of short sales. These bid tests apply only to Nasdaq Global Market securities that are traded on Nasdaq or the over-the-counter market and reported to a NASD facility.
On July 28, 2004, the Commission issued an order creating a one-year pilot temporarily suspending the tick test and any short sale price test of any exchange or national securities association for certain securities. The pilot was created so that the Commission could study the effectiveness of short sale price tests. The Commission's Office of Economic Analysis and academic researchers provided the Commission with analyses of the empirical data obtained from the pilot. In addition, the Commission held a roundtable to discuss the results of the pilot. The general consensus from these analyses and the roundtable was that the Commission should remove price test restrictions because they modestly reduce liquidity and do not appear necessary to prevent manipulation. In addition, the empirical evidence did not provide strong support for extending a price test to either small or thinly-traded securities not currently subject to a price test.
I just wanted to put a little info out there about a subject that I heard being talked about yesterday on the radio. It is not exactly off topic because we all are affected by it.
Yesterday, I was listening to Larry Kudlow on WABC and he was talking about a law called the Uptick Law. It was created by Joe Kennedy. Pull up Wikipedia and check it out. I also read about it on a blog called: hazzzmat.blogspot.com. The Uptick Rule was eliminated on July 6, 2007.

sunday--time for an overview beofre the week starts again:
http://www.cnbc.com/id/15837275?q=tko
TKO only made $3.1M this past quarter!! That is laughable and a huge disappointment from the whisper number of $5M that was widely discussed. Then, the spinsters at the company hatch a devious plan to include an additional $500K of income in their report from a separate company. TKO spun off MSHI and then claims their income for themselves in order to make their bottom line not appear so dire. Devious shenanigans again.
Again, as this became clear on Friday, the price moved down and closed at the low of the day. What will sustain this lofty price in the weeks to come? Nothing. The drift lower begins again. Watch and learn.
Do you know the price per share on the 500k after hours trade?
I see the "h" is still hooked the the tko quote in the sunday papers. I feel if TKO mgt. has satisfied all requirements as they have implied, why has the h not been removed? anyone! I also think the h maybe holding the pps down.

To you know who,
Thanks for the note. I remain long and strong. Sorry for the confusion.
BSD
Referring to msg # 8136, where we posted the complete Q2 filing for ALL to see, I have posted the paragraph on page 3 the Q2 report, for ease of viewing--and where we find that TKO actually pulled in Total Revenue for June '07, of Total Revenue $3,666,607 . Isn't that exciting?
In case some were perhaps, were drowning their sorrows in drink, and may have looked at these figures with Beer Goggles on, I am pleased to be able to verify the numbers by presenting a copy of the paragraph on page 3, as verification.

ala Dennis Miller. wsup Heroshi.
I told everyone no way TKO makes $5M last quarter. I was right again. Furthermore, TKO only made $3.1M last quarter. How disappointing, yet again.
There is absolutely nothing that will keep the price moving up or even stable at this point. All the news is out and now the wait is on for November. Meaning, this wait starts at $1.80. After the loss report of TKO losses, the starting point was well above $2.00. That wait brought us to $1.20. Where will this wait bring us?

hhahahahaha...it closed at the low of the day...doesn't look too good for next week. Who was saying $2.00? More like $1.50 coming up quick again. You people really haven't figured this out yet.
Bsd I have 2 questions for you. 1) How do you know that Walrus sold his stock i have never seen him post that. All he has ever said is that he believes in the company and he is holding long term. Have you talked to him by phone? 2)You called GLL he do you know for sure that it is a man and not a woman? I too have not sold a share and believe in the company.

Sector: Technology
Industry: Communications Equipment
Telkonet’s patented powerline communications (PLC) systems – the Telkonet iWire System and next generation 200 Mbps Telkonet Series 5 – use a building’s existing internal electrical wiring to enable Internet connectivity throughout an entire building, converting electrical outlets into high-speed data ports. This is an ideal solution for properties that are not wired with CAT-5 or where CAT-5 is cost-prohibitive.
The EthoStream Gateway Server (EGS) product line of gateway devices, which are developed in-house, deliver wired or wireless high-speed Internet access, integrating easily with any combination of WAN connections. The EGS products range from a cost-effective gateway for limited use applications to a feature-rich, dual-WAN, scalable gateway for full-service properties.
Telkonet’s energy management systems, Telkonet SmartEnergy (TSE) and Networked Telkonet SmartEnergy (NTSE), reduce in-room energy consumption by controlling heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) usage based on occupancy. By eliminating unnecessary heating and cooling of vacant rooms, TSE typically reduces energy consumption by 30% or greater.
Telkonet’s proactive support center brings quality of service to a new level with its dedicated, in-house employees, 24/7/365 support, and integrated proactive monitoring and management tools that put property management in control. By integrating the EthoStream Gateway Server and the web-based Telkonet CENTRAL, our in-house support team has real-time visibility into a property’s HSIA usage and data, as well as ISP status.
Telkonet SmartEnergy™ (TSE) controls HVAC usage and improves energy efficiency by adjusting and maintaining a room’s temperature based on occupancy, using a combination of occupancy sensors, intelligent programmable thermostats or packaged terminal air conditioner (PTAC) controllers. TSE eliminates wasteful heating and cooling of vacant rooms without compromising an occupant’s comfort based on our patented Recovery Time™ technology.
Building on the proven capabilities of the TSE system and incorporating Telkonet's unique Recovery Time™ technology, our new Networked Telkonet SmartEnergy (NTSE) advances intelligent HVAC building control with a flexible, resilient and low-cost energy management platform. NTSE utilizes a ZigBee wireless IEE802.15.4 “mesh” network, where each device functions as a wireless repeater and enables energy management thermostats to communicate with each other and aggregate communications up to a single master NTSE Gateway Server on site. NTSE enables central control without needing expensive back-haul wiring. Its key monitoring and analysis features ensure optimum energy savings, giving property owners the tools to identify and implement energy savings, providing total visibility and detailed data about a property's HVAC system and its energy consumption, together with real-time, instant remote management capabilities.
Key features and benefits of NTSE
Telkonet’s proprietary, patented powerline communications (PLC) products harness a building’s internal electrical wiring to form an IP network, turning power outlets into data ports, while leaving the electrical functionality unaffected. Telkonet’s PLC systems – the Telkonet iWire System and the 200 Mbps Telkonet Series 5 – represent a quick, economical, and non-disruptive way to achieve high-speed Internet connectivity throughout a building. Telkonet’s PLC systems offer the hard-wired security and reliability of a CAT-5 cabled network, but without the cost, physical disturbance and business disruption of wiring CAT-5. For properties looking to provide wireless coverage, Telkonet’s systems can be used to feed WiFi access points, which can be connected quickly and simply to any power outlet.
Series 5 Comparison “With 209 sites and limited numbers of IT technicians, we needed a reliable, plug-and-play system that was easy to install, maintain and operate. With Telkonet’s solution, we demonstrated that our own IT staff and contract electricians could install the system…”
Steve Custer, Supervisor CCTV/LAN Networking and A.V. Repair, Hillsborough County School District (SDHC)
