the guiding thread through the labyrinth of telecom

ARIADNE/Optical suite is designed to address operators

needs for inventory management and planning activities in
the developing optical networks.
Implementing the results of the best telecom engineering
practices, combined with the excellent graphical
representation of all network layers provides integrated
view of the entire network allowing end-to-end outline of
fibre circuits even in a multi-vendor environment. All of
these features empower your technical team to record,
plan, design, optimise and operate your network extremely
effectively.
The tightly coupled functions make the solution unique on
the market, as the modular software architecture assures
scalability and ensures a reliable and cost-effective
solution for operators with different sizes and organisation.
The network planning is based on up-to-date network
inventory, supported by on-the-fly generated engineering
drawings and network restructuring wizards. The open
architecture provides flexible interfacing capabilities to the
legacy components and offers overall scalability for
applications in various environments.

ARIADNE/Optical at a glance
ARIADNE/Optical suite, a member of the ARIADNE product
family, is based on a comprehensive data model, and provides
network connection (RING, LAN) planning and cable capacity
management features for active and passive optical communication networks. This system is essential to manage both transmission and FTTx networks.
The application provides all the necessary tools for query,
manage and update the network inventory easily. The
multi-layer network management, which covers all the
trenches, pipes, cables, fibres and the releated equipments,
assures an integrated model and makes it easy and quick to
compose new circuits or redesign existing ones in an efficient
and controlled way.

Key features of ARIADNE/Optical

Network layout presentation using seamless map
management, scale dependent viewing and integration of as
built documentation
Automatic fibre routing based on different criterions and present
different routing versions for fibre planner to make the proper
decisions
Management of connections between network elements: create,
delete connections
Schematics generation of network elements (network structure,
box/joint, BFP-CTP, cable/fibre)
Management of FTTx network topology with subscriber
information

General features of ARIADNE/Optical

ARIADNE/Optical suite covers two fundamental areas of
the optical fibre network management:
network element and resource management
(network records)
capacity allocation based on network resources
The system contains the complete data model description of fibre
networks. The solution capabilities include

Map and network layout presentation

- seamless map management
- scale dependent viewing (based on the view scale
automatically controls the representation and content of maps
and network elements)
- network elements on the map visualisation
- as built documentation integration

Up-to-date records of the network elements

- data visualisation
- data modification (create, modify, delete)
- multi-key data query
- data export capability

Schematics generation
From the data stored in the database the necessary schematics
(graphical reports) can be generated automatically.
- ring diagrams
- box/joint schematics
- inside wiring (BFP-CTP connections)
- cable-fibre diagram
- FTTx topology diagram

Management of connections between network elements

- physical and logical connections visualisation
- create, delete connections
Creation and record of network routes
Based on the network description in the database
ARIADNE/OPTICAL can define automatically the possible fibre
routes (circuits) and present different routing versions for fibre
planner to make the proper decisions
- find all possible routes in case of RING and LAN connection
- support decision making by providing information on data
sheets (e.g. route, usage or free capacity information, etc.)
- graphic presentation of different versions (show route etc.)
Fibre management, splicing
- complete fibre records provide information about fibre section
status (good, damaged, reserved, etc.) and utilisation (free,
used by a given circuit, etc.)
- splicing functions (cut-in, cut-out)
- handling ODF connections
Active elements
- FTTx network topology management
- managing logical circuits between remote equipments
- handling of OLT, ONx, COx equipments
FTTx
- equipment configurator
- OLT, ONT, splitter equipment handling
- topology drawing generation
- network element and fibre utilization and capacity
management

Printed reports
- standard predefined and user defined alphanumeric reports
from database
- output to printer or to file (formats: pdf, html, postscript,
delimited text )
Assignment of documents to network elements
Handling non-structured data e.g. contracts, permissions,
pictures, drawings. This information can be attached to any
objects of the network. The format of the non-structured data
might be various: bitmaps, vector-graphical files, text files,
worksheet files, videos etc.
- attach and detach files to network objects
- open the selected document with the application
(e.g. MS Word, Excel, Web browser, Paint, )
User access control
- manage rights of user groups for data and functions
- record any activity in the system in log files
