Full management of Telecom Networks
Fiber Optic Works®
Hexagon’s Fiber Optic Works® is an advanced geospatial
telecoms management solution that enables operators
to streamline processes – from planning to maintenance
– and maintain an operations-ready network model
that can be exploited across the business. It provides
comprehensive capabilities to design, document,
administer, and maintain telecom networks.
Fiber Optic Works provides an accessible enterprise
data environment with all data, business rules, and logic
stored in an open Oracle Spatial database. It delivers
comprehensive network data – physical and logical –
that can be leveraged across the business for efficient,
end-to-end workflows and richer, timelier insights. Its
business rules, design tools, relationship model, and data
validation ensure data integrity and conformance with
Integrated solutions provide relevant improvements.
corporate design practice and engineering standards.
In addition to traditional network management, the
solution focuses on managing telecom-specific assets,
including new components and devices (xPON, xWDM,
etc.) that support FTTx configurations. It improves
processes via integration with circuit provisioning
systems to map services and customers to the network.
Fiber Optic Works addresses the connectivity of
inventory and services of the complete telecom network.
Its fiber management capabilities support traditional
fiber transport, point-to-point networks, fiber rings,
and FTTx networks. Using Fiber Optic Works, operators
can maximize revenue and productivity, shorten project
schedule, and increase customer, regulator, and
stakeholder satisfaction.
