Efficiency in deploying and managing fiber networks
Fiber networks are the key in next generation connectivity. As operators ramp up their investments and accelerate their fiber deployments, they need to rely on new generation technology to facilitate installations, optimize capacity, and ultimately deliver quality connectivity services. Ni2 Fiber & Plant breaks down technological and operational silos by bridging the gap between traditional GIS and new generation OSS capabilities, offering operators end-to-end visibility and efficiency while deploying and managing their fiber networks.
Ni2 Fiber & Plant combines the capabilities of outside plant and inventory management solutions in order to build and share invaluable information regarding the physical infrastructure across the entire organization. This results in enhanced capacity assessment, service impact analysis, root cause analysis, and much more.
Shared understanding of the physical Infrastructure
Ni2 Fiber & Plant offers comprehensive representations of physical infrastructures, including geospatial and topological views of every physical resource (fiber cables, conduits, buildings, poles, splice cabinets…) and how they relate to the logical, service, and business layers. Installation and customer facing teams share invaluable information on ongoing activities impacting the infrastructure—such as maintenance or new installations—in order to operate with efficiency.
One inventory for all
In addition to expanding their fiber networks, operators are turning central offices, antennas and buildings into colocation real-estate and diversifying their services. Ni2 Fiber & Plant includes a unified inventory management solution that tracks and manages all resources and equipment in a central repository. All company stakeholders can query information regarding outside plant resources and visualize topological representations of their relations and dependencies to other resources, services, and customers.
