What Is FiberBase®?

FiberBase® is a database management system for a broadband network. FiberBase® consists of two main components, a relational database, and a graphical user interface. Its purpose is to document all network assets including regions, structures, equipment, sheaths and ables, routes, connections, etc. The documented data is used as a maintenance tool for the efficient management of fiber and copper distribution networks.

Relational Database

A relational database allows queries based on any sets of attributes. The powerful FiberBase® relational database provides you with many different ways of obtaining information. For example, you can easily locate all of a certain type of equipment in a given structure such as a network hub.

Graphical User Interface

A graphical user interface consists of interactive pictorial windows. FiberBase® windows represent realworld scenarios such as maps, floor plans, two-dimensional equipment sets, cable topologies, and so on. You can use these displays to enter and view information.

About FiberBase

While testing and monitoring a fiber network is essential for establishing consistency and maintaining customer satisfaction, service providers first need to know the routes and locations of all cables, splices, and connections. Today, many service providers lack the proper means to keep track of the infrastructure they’ve spent millions of dollars building; they rely on management systems with manual records kept on paper or contained in several isolated databases.

The FiberBase® system gives service providers a single-source solution for recording and accessing detailed information about their networks. It consists of a vast relational database, interfaces for communicating with existing systems, a client-server architecture and a graphical user interface, which gives even inexperienced staff members an intuitive grasp of the system.

The FiberBase® system is a software-based system administration and maintenance tool for managing assets of broadband distribution networks. The FiberBase® software system is intended to manage end-to-end network connectivity information. This information consists of all the equipment, cables and connections that make up the broadband route.
