Fiber Designation

The “Spatial Engineer 11” tutorial on fiber designation is a practical guide for users who wish to extend their understanding of network configurations, specifically focusing on setting up and managing fiber optic cable designations within their network. This process is crucial for organizing, expanding, and maintaining a structured and efficient fiber network infrastructure. Here’s a concise summary based on the video content:

  1. Accessing Fiber Designation:
    • Start by navigating to the fiber designation feature via the fiber pull-down menu.
    • Select “CO Configuration,” proceed to “DBA,” choose “Fiber Configuration,” and finally click on “Fiber Designation” at the bottom of the menu.
  2. Adding a New Fiber Designation:
    • With the fiber designation dialogue box open, click “Add” to create a new fiber cable designation.
    • Utilizing the configuration setup from a previous tutorial (network configuration), use the ellipsis button to locate and select your central office (e.g., Glendale).
  3. Configuring Cable Details:
    • Enter the cable number (e.g., GNDF1) with proper capitalization as required.
    • Specify the cable size, which in this case is identified as “144” fibers.
    • Save the configuration to assign the designated fiber cable to the chosen central office.
  4. Finalizing the Setup:
    • After saving the new fiber designation, it becomes available for deployment from the specified central office.
    • To conclude the process, select “Cancel” to exit the fiber designation dialogue, then proceed to “File” and “Exit.”
  5. Concluding Remarks:
    • This tutorial highlights the importance of accurately designating fiber cables within Spatial Engineer 11. Proper designation ensures that each cable is correctly identified and organized, facilitating easier management and expansion of the network.

By following these steps, users of Spatial Engineer 11 are equipped to effectively manage their fiber network configurations, enhancing overall network integrity and operational efficiency.
