CADTEL Announces Broadband Design Manager

SCOTTSDALE, AZ – CADTEL Systems Inc. announced today the availability of Broadband Design Manager, a state-of-the-art fiber design solution with broad application for any company designing or deploying fiber infrastructure.

Broadband Design Manager complements CADTEL’s comprehensive Outside Plant Engineering solution suite with powerful and intuitive functionality spanning all fiber engineering activities. Covering all facets of fiber deployment, from conceptual planning to detailed design, construction, and commissioning, growth and grooming, Broadband Design Manager will transform your current planning and engineering processes.

Imagine, with a few mouse clicks, releasing the power of a solution that quickly creates essential fiber network features such as service driven cable size, terminal sizing, tail and drop lengths, and most notably, automated fiber facility placement. The result – your engineering team can now rapidly develop alternative scenarios to facilitate cost trade-off analyses, with projected labor hour savings exceeding 75% over traditional fiber design methods.

Further enhancing Broadband Design Manager functionality is extensive user-definable engineering, material and expense criteria allowing for complete customization of key attributes specific to your company. In addition, material and labor costs, including construction and splicing labor, are based upon actual material and labor units, not just across-the-board “per route mile” calculations. As a result your company benefits from improved design accuracy, greater efficiency, and significant time savings.

• Capturing network planning for loop build-out via construction-level drawings and extensive reports

• Imbedded staking sheet automation and intelligent annotation tools

• Automated placement of NID, NAP, cable, and drop placement, and association of NIDs to host NAPs

• Fiber tracking through splitters and multi-port fiber terminal port calculations

• Automated calculation of span fiber & port requirements and cable facility type

• Integrated generation of bill of material (BOM), labor and material cost estimates

• Supports the development of multiple alternatives for cost trade-off analyses, all within a fraction of the time it has traditionally taken to complete just the initial design

Broadband Design Manager from CADTEL will transform the way your company approaches the task of fiber network design and construction.
