Cable Management System describes and manages voice and data cabling infrastructures
Why the need for a cabling
management software?
As
today's telephone and data networking environments become ever more complex,
it becomes vitally important that network system administration have thorough
knowledge and increased control over the network's system components. Proper
design and management of these systems also is crucial. Increasingly complex
networking schemes translate into higher demands on performance and overall
system capacity. Conventional approaches to network management, though,
such as using CAD drawing or pencil and paper to conduct calculations and
draw sketches, are a far cry from providing the necessary flexibility,
network compatibility, and ease of use required by today's network system
administrators.
Recent estimates alone show that companies are relocating, on average,
approximately 30% of their staff per year. Whether these moves are across
town or simply across the hall, they both have one thing in common: They
require reconfiguration of network and telephone systems to reflect the
move. Even if the company is relatively small, this task can often be a
time-consuming, arduous, and tedious process. And, with very little conventional
means available today to help plan cabling infrastructure prior to any
move, there's no guarantee that a great deal more time and effort won't
be spent down the road troubleshooting and tracking system problems. System
administrators are left to wonder what options they have?

Our solution answers many of these concerns with a highly graphical windows user interface software system that empowers users to manage all aspects of their cabling infrastructure effectively.
Specifically designed to comply with the ANSI/EIA/TIA standards
for commercial-building telecommunication wiring, Cable Management System relies on a number
of advanced tools to help simplify the administration of any cable system.
Such tools include macro commands and drag-and-drop options, as well as
a variety of functions to help speed recording of information and data entry.
Entire networks can be recorded quickly and easily in a relatively short period of time. These records can be referenced at a later date to simplify the treatment of such tasks as network extensions, reconfiguration and work orders.
