The Drafting Assistant continues to use AutoCAD as the interface for placing objects. The Oracle database stores not only the fiber documentation, but also the graphical data. The Drafting Assistant has developed into the perfect solution for drafting and documenting RF networks and your fiber circuits. When you add the Fiber Module to your existing Drafting Assistant. you will open the door to designing and documenting your entire circuit from the Head End to the home all in one product. Your existing AutoCAD drawings can quickly be prepared for export into the Oracle database.<\/p>\n<p>Multiple users can run the program simultaneously across a network, viewing and altering database information independently. \u00a0Different users can be assigned different privilege levels, which will give certain users more power while limiting what other users can do.<\/p>\n<h2>Features<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Model any type of fiber or equipment commonly used in today\u2019s fiber optic circuits to assist in Fiber Optic Network Design<\/li>\n<li>Splice individual fibers in easy to use dialog boxes.<\/li>\n<li>Splice fiber-to-fiber, bundle-to-bundle, or cable-to-cable.<\/li>\n<li>Trace dark fiber between any two splice locations and Calculate fiber design loss budget.<\/li>\n<li>Include losses for splices, connectors, adapters, and loops if desired.<\/li>\n<li>Designate splice as fusion or mechanical, and set actual splice loss.<\/li>\n<li>Assign usage details to individual fibers.<\/li>\n<li>Assign customers and owners to equipment.<\/li>\n<li>Assign priorities to customers to speed repairs for the most important fibers.<\/li>\n<li>Record \u201cfiber tic marks\u201d at strategic locations.<\/li>\n<li>Perform and graphically record OTDR trace locations for quick and accurate repairs.<\/li>\n<li>Keep a service record for all fiber cables and equipment.<\/li>\n<li>Assign splice trays and positions of fibers in each tray at splice locations.<\/li>\n<li>Automatically populate cable lengths based on either geographic placement or route connectivity.
