This page is for thoughts about documenting of cables, patch-panels, splices and cross-connects in RT.
Object types
2 new object types: Cross and Cable.
Cable is a solid cable connecting two or more Crosses. It could be cut and terminated/connected by some of its fibers in any of its Crosses.
While Cross is much like a traditional object, Cable is a fundamentally new type. It has:
* physical medium type (SM fiber, twisted pair, etc) * a model * named fibers. Actually Cable is a group of crossable cables (fibers) * a set of Crosses which a Cable belongs to * length and shape which could be represented visually on a map
A Cross contains connections between fibers of its Cables and its ports. All these connections are inside the Cross (none of them does not occupy a port connector on Cross'es front). These connections could be of types:
* loops (two ports of Cross connected) * terms (one of the fibers connected to one of the ports) * xconnect (two fibers connected)
Each of such connection could have a type (i.e. splice, glued, mates, soldering, jointing)
