System for mounting and controlling accumulators in workstations

An assembly and control system for combatting and preventing the theft of an energy accumulator installed in a radio-based station rack in an outdoor environment, said assembly and control system comprising:

• (a) at least one battery to be protected installed in a radio-base station rack;
• (b) at least one electromagnetic lock configured so that said at least one battery cannot be removed until said at least one electromagnetic lock is de-energized;
• (c) a backup power supply;
• (d) at least one audible sensor;
• (e) at least one presence sensor;
• (f) a switching system that electrically powers said at least one electromagnetic lock, said switching system comprising (1) an electrical connection to a rack busbar (2) an electrical connection to said backup power supply, and (3) a sensor for measuring voltage of said rack busbar;
• and
• (g) a processing center controlling activation and deactivation of the at least one electromagnetic lock,
• wherein when a signal is received from the at least one presence sensor indicating the absence of the battery to be protected, an audible warning is triggered by said at least one audible sensor to an operations center in order to combat or prevent the theft of the energy accumulator.
