Solutions for communications networks

Today's communication networks consist of thousands of miles of cables, fiber, and wire basing, both above and below ground and through buildings and terminals. Along with this comes tens of thousands of connections and pieces of equipment that transmit, receive, amplify, split, and direct the signals on large fiber networks. Together, these comprise the communication provider's most critical asset — the network that delivers services to homes and businesses.

We're now past the days of paper-based drawing systems, CAD, and GIS-based systems which limited the network information to expensive engineering desktops. Simply stated, there was a need for a model that could provide support for customer serviceability and outages, inventory, configuration, and location of all equipment, as well as connectivity, topology, and signal delivery. spatialSUITE® has filled this very void and now provides a unified, accurate, accessible asset registry of communication networks that address this need. We knew what our customers needed; we listened; and we delivered.

SPATIALinfo's up-to-date registry of network assets plays a critical role in service fulfillment and allows our customers to access accurate network asset information that drastically reduces the need for expensive field audits to gather equipment and address data. In addition, our core network planning tools provide detailed layout and bill of material generation to facilitate enterprise planning and procurement. This detailed network asset information, obviously, allows for optimal provisioning of equipment, particularly fiber strands and splices.

So, if you're looking for a model that provides immediate answers for customer serviceability and proximity of network resources; reduces expensive "truck rolls" to determine serviceability; identifies areas where marketing and sales efforts focus to increase market penetration of both business and residential customers; and provides quick access to accurate fiber strand location and capacity that will allow you to apportion fiber to be used for high-revenue service offerings such as direct Ethernet and business fiber or cellular backhaul, SPATIALinfo's enterprise network model is the answer.

SPATIALinfo's accurate and comprehensive network information model provides access to the information necessary to assure high quality, high bandwidth service to all parts of the network and provides timely information on inventory, configuration, and geographical location that reduces mean-time-to-recovery (MTTR) for failed network devices. You can ALWAYS be assured, our enterprise integration will extend the network information model to network management systems, network analysis tools, event and fault management systems, and disaster recovery planning. Our job, nevertheless, is to provide to you, our customer, exactly what you need.

In summary, our network design and layout tools provide an intelligent, comprehensive information model that becomes a true enterprise inventory of the network. By implementing faster, more accurate planning and design tools, we can lower your construction costs and shorter the time to market from network build-out to service activation. Our job is to provide a combination of physical and capacity modeling that optimizes your network planning and design considerations to increase your addressable markets and penetration. The more we can automate your field workflows and maintain your network information integrity, by merging the data back to the enterprise model, with our offline and remote design capability, the more successful you'll be — ALWAYS positioning yourself on the leading edge of technology.
