Acterna Introduces Fiber Mapping Software

Acterna introduced a new Optical Fiber Mapping (OFM) software application that provides a bird's eye view of a network's outside fiber plant, enabling the operator to hone in on the exact location of faults, outages, affected nodes, and customer sites. Acterna said the high-fiber density of metro networks requires operators to have up-to-date documentation that includes original schematics created by a designer in paper or electronic formats, maps, photos, plant assets, and network element data. The new software enables users from different divisions within an organization to generate customized reports.
