Grounding
Grounding for backbone cables, assets, pathways, and termination
hardware can be set up in Cable Management. The busbar and
conductors can be connected to pathways.
See “Grounding” on page 4-23.
Splices
You can track the splices in backbone cables in Cable Management. See
“Adding Splices” on page 4-18 and “Adding a Backbone” on page 4-20.
Pathways
Pathways that house and transport cables within a company's
infrastructure are easily tracked in Cable Management. The pathways
can be interconnected. Cables in the pathway are listed. See
“Adding a
Backbone” on page 4-20.)
Ability to see backbone pair/strand details/status
The Pair/Strand Details tab of the Backbone Cables feature allows you to
see and track source and destination of cables, ports/positions, and
whether the pairs/strands are available, used, or damaged. See
“Backbone Pair/Strand Details” on page 4-22.
Filtering Logic-Navigator Tree
The information you see in the List and Detail View sections on the right
side of the window is filtered by your location in the Navigator Tree. For
example, if you highlight a campus, and then select Horizontal Links,
you will see all the HLs for the entire campus. If you highlight a
Faceplate, you will see only the HL(s) for that Faceplate.
See “Navigator Tree” on page 1-4.
Reports
With Cable Management, reports are output to HTML. When generated,
they will appear as you have specified them in your web browser, and
can be printed in color. See
“Reports” on page 4-29.
Reporting capabilities include the ability to print details of any record
directly from List View. Report types include Asset details, Space details,
TR details, and Backbone, Horizontal Link, and Mainframe information.
See
“Available Reports” on page 4-31.
Cable Management's sorting/filtering/grouping logic means that you can
create reports showing only information you actually need at a given
time. It's easy to make reports specific to details of your cabling
infrastructure.
See “Sorting, Filtering, and Grouping Reports” on page 4-30.
