Reports & Outputs: Meaningful Network Analysis for Management and Operations
Sound decisions require current, reliable data. cableScout® provides over 50 standardized reports, exports, and printouts – for operational teams as well as management. From real-time capacity utilization to subsidy-compliant shapefile output: all relevant information about the fiber or copper network can be retrieved, filtered, and exported in the required formats at the touch of a button.
Standard Reports for All Departments
Standardized evaluations include reports on connections, buildings, components, duct systems, signals, maintenance cycles, and utilization. Results can be refined further at any time by applying filters. Informative special evaluations such as joint assignments, component occupancy, duct assignments, cable damage, and cable occupancy are also available.
Meaningful Statistics for Strategic Decisions
Management receives reliable key figures at the touch of a button: number of lit fibers, fiber meters built, free capacity by network layer, utilization rates, and trends. These data form the basis for investment decisions, expansion projects, M&A processes, and due diligence reviews.
Individual Report Generator Without SQL Knowledge
In addition to standard evaluations, the integrated report generator allows individual database queries to be created easily – without SQL knowledge. Self-created reports can be saved as templates and retrieved at any time. cableScout® thus also covers company-specific information needs that go beyond the standard.
Diverse Output Formats
cableScout® outputs data in all common formats: Excel for further processing in spreadsheets, PDF for documentation and archiving, Google Earth/Maps for geographic visualization, AutoCAD (DXF) for integration into CAD workflows, and Shapefile for GIS systems. For subsidized projects, the shapefile export compliant with GIS supplementary conditions 3.x/4.x of Atene KOM is available.
Printouts and Plans for Practical Use
In addition to data exports, cableScout® generates a wide range of practical printouts directly from the application: work orders, splice and patch plans, duct and construction plans, route longitudinal sections, cutting plans, cable plans, cable routing diagrams, fiber assignment overviews, and network overview plans. All plans are dynamically generated from the database and always reflect the current state.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What standard reports does cableScout® offer?
