cableScout® MOBILE: Network Information Where It’s Needed – Even Offline

Field operations, fault clearance, and construction work require fast access to current network data – regardless of whether an internet connection is available on site. cableScout® MOBILE provides all relevant fiber network data offline, geographically accurately, and in a practical format on mobile devices. The app is available for iOS, Android, and Windows.

The mobile version mirrors the complete cableScout® database to the device: routes, ducts, cables, distribution frames, components, fibers, and signals. The display is true-to-build and geographically accurate – technicians and contractors see exactly the same information as in the office, without being dependent on a server connection. A server connection is only required for synchronizing data updates and transferring redline corrections.

In the field, faults can be analyzed directly: check signal routes in the schematic plan and on the map, enter OTDR measurement values and visualize the possible fault location on the map, and navigate directly to the fault location using the integrated navigation function. With cableScout® MOBILE, technicians respond to faults without having to return to the office first.

If a technician discovers a discrepancy between the documented and actual infrastructure in the field, it can be captured directly in the app. Redline corrections – as text, photo, or voice note, each with a geotag – are transferred back to the central cableScout® system in a structured manner, where they can be cleaned up. This keeps the data set continuously up to date.

cableScout® MOBILE is available as a native app for iOS (Apple App Store), Android (Google Play Store), and Windows (Microsoft Store). The app can be used on all common tablets and smartphones.
