The Fibre Management Software

Documentation

The cable management software cableScout® transparently displays fibre optic and copper networks in wide area, metropolitan area and access network sectors across all network levels down to the signal layer.

Planning & Design

cableScout® can perform a wide range of planning activities, from the activation of a service to the design of a complete FTTH network. Once completed, everything can be transferred to the AS-BUILT documentation.

Administration

cableScout® has high-performance functionalities, clear graphics and detailed analyses which provide network operators with cost-optimised and above all future-proof network administration.

Our customers create the backbone of a modern society with their communications networks and through their innovations are actively driving digital progress forward.

What our customers say about cableScout®

„cableScout® enables Magenta to map its complex and interconnected fibre optic topology in a centralised and hierarchical structure. cableScout® is also used to define, plan and document the parameters required for network expansion ranging from laying and splicing technology to the passive connection and active transmission level.” These parameters are consulted both for precise location or region-based statements and also for global network-wide analyses such as impact analyses, budget forecasts, assessments of business cases or fault localisations.“
MICHAEL DOMS, MAGENTA

„For 1&1-Versatel, where the fibre optic network has grown from many regional sub-networks, cableScout® provides the central system for the nationwide standardised documentation of the entire network. In other words cableScout® is the data master for our Germany-wide passive network and therefore forms the basis for future expansion strategies. Operation and troubleshooting would be inconceivable without this state-of-the-art fibre management tool. We are looking forward to the new version with its additional functions which will support us in 5G and cluster expansion.“

CHRISTIAN BEIN, 1&1-Versatel

„Sunrise UPC is the biggest private telecommunications company in Switzerland. With the leading hybrid fibre optic network that also comprises one of the best mobile telephone networks in the world, Sunrise UPC offers giga-speeds to more than 90 percent of Swiss households. cableScout® has been in use since 2003 to administer, plan and operate 20,000 km of fibre optic cables and two million fibres. cableScout® with all its interfaces is brilliantly embedded into the network inventory system environment.“

MICHAEL WERNLI, Sunrise
“Gas&Com operates their fibre optic backbone along the national natural gas high pressure pipelines in Switzerland. Our proactive partnerships enable us to offer fibre optic connections through to the end-customer. Gas&Com has also specialised in connecting data centres in Switzerland and has connected about 85% of all Swiss data centres. We have used cableScout® since 2013 to document the entire geographic and logical infrastructure. cableScout® accurately captures the important details regarding buildings, trenches and hardware. This then enables cableScout® to constantly provide all the relevant information relating to the complex network so that any sales, planning, operations and fault queries can be responded to in the best possible manner. This added value creates the best pre-requisite conditions for Gas&Com and our customers to make the right decisions.”
MICHAEL STENZ, Gas&Com
„Our copper and fibre optic networks are totally managed and supported by the cableScout® cable management system. A very important function for us is to be able to document the details of the services activated by our business customers from start to finish. As a result we are able to compile analyses on leased cables and fibres and charge for our services accordingly. cableScout® is the optimum solution for our company as it includes all the functionality we need and the software is very stable.“
LOTHAR MAXIMINI, SWT Stadtwerke

„We use cableScout® to manage all our telecommunications, in other words, our fibre optic and copper networks. We like the system because the documentation and planning are easy to handle and new projects can be created in a self-explanatory way.“

cableScout® enables us to store and transparently display all the information relating to our fibre optic, data, cable ducting and communications networks in one single platform. This means we can use the system as a basis for all planning purposes and efficiently process any new cabling or equipment integration. We particularly like the fact that the system is under continuous development and that our wishes and suggestions are always taken into consideration in this process.“
NORMAN SCHLESIER, Energieversorgung Gera
„enwor manages all its external fibre optic and copper data networks in cableScout®. For us the highlights of the system are the FTTH functionalities and in particular the micro-duct management. The central data hub means we can quickly access information to troubleshoot a fault. We can now also answer customer and supplier queries within a few seconds. We are very happy with cableScout® and with the service provided by JO Software GmbH and we are delighted to recommend them.“
„WWZ manages its extensive fibre optic network with cableScout® including its protective ducts and micro-ducts. Some signal cables and copper lines are also documented with the system. cableScout® guarantees good and fault-free customer documentation. The support provided is excellent and cableScout® fully meets all our requirements.“
MICHAEL BIERI, WWZ AG
„It is now very easy with cableScout® to maintain our cable network together with all the activated layouts. The software is user-friendly and provides us with an excellent overview of our network.“
LILO SOLCA, BLS AG
„We use cableScout® to manage our entire fibre optic and empty duct networks. We particularly like the versatile and flexible possibilities of the documentation. We are very happy with the system and its associated support.“
KRISTOPH POPPENWIMMER, Stadtwerke Passau
„The cableScout® fibre management function enables us to label each individual fibre individually and to display it in detail. This in turn allows us to show detailed resolution of fibre routes, to create meaningful splice plans and to locate faults using an OTDR device. In short, cableScout® is the perfect solution for us and the competent support provided completes the picture perfectly.“
„cableScout® provides us with a comprehensive overview of our fibre optic network which means we can also manage it effectively. Therefore we can very quickly remove any faults that may occur. We immediately have all the details of a faulty cable displayed on the screen and can quickly find alternative routes, in order if necessary to effect an emergency switch. cableScout® is very user-friendly and the support provided is excellent.“
„Thanks to the management software cableScout® we were able to significantly improve the availability of our fiber network. Required fiber details are always at hand when needed and the system is capable of proposing alternative routes in case of a network problem. For us cableScout® is the ultimate insurance for an efficient network operation and a swift resolution of eventual network failures.“
„We use cableScout® to implement our fibre documentation and planning for our FTTH network. We particularly like the fact that we can compile orders very easily and issue them to installers. We also like the transparency and ease of use of cableScout®.“
