Give each asset its network context
Network owners, ISPs and maintenance teams need to connect an inventory entry with its route or site. A list of equipment is useful, but location and network relationships make that list actionable during rollout, handover and fault response.
Passive and active records
Passive inventory includes routes, cables, joints, ducts, splices and related physical network assets. Active inventory includes equipment and links tied to mapped locations. Network site records bring together site-level assets and capacity.
These views support different operational questions. A route team may need the physical infrastructure along a stretch, while a site team may need the installed equipment and associated handover documents.
Maintaining a connected inventory
- Use the surveyed route and site information as geographic context.
- Associate passive assets with the relevant physical network record.
- Link equipment and connections to their mapped site locations.
- Connect installation and commissioning status with asset-linked documents.
- Use the inventory context when reviewing faults and coordinating field work.
What to bring to a demonstration
Bring representative asset categories, identifiers and the site or route relationships you need to maintain. Review how inventory is organized and how updates should be handled over the network lifecycle.
Is this a warehouse inventory system?
The supplied scope describes mapped network inventory. Procurement, stock movement, depreciation and warehouse processes should be discussed separately rather than assumed.
Can we connect handover records to assets?
Installation and commissioning includes asset-linked handover documents. Agree the document types, identifiers and review process needed for your sites.
