Engineering and Maintenance of Broadband Networks

The Bentley communications solution allows service providers, as well as those operating non-revenue producing networks (such as DOTs, government agencies, and defense agencies), to efficiently engineer and manage broadband networks. The solution provides complete support for engineering FTTP and associated network architectures such as FTTN, FTTC, and FTTH which enable service providers to meet the ever increasing demand for reliable high-speed video, data, and voice communications at competitive prices.  

Efficient network planning and engineering is key to lowering network build-out costs and overall operational expenditures. The Bentley communications solution builds a comprehensive, connected network model of inside and outside plant. By using the intelligent network model in the design process, along with customer and geographic information, forward looking planning for next generation networks is realized, while optimized engineering designs are produced. The solution allows engineers to design, analyze, document, and manage the network in a single environment. On-the-fly fiber engineering calculations speed design processes and fine-tune equipment specification. The design process results in the automated production of engineering reports, intelligent splicing diagrams, and detailed work prints to support network construction and configuration.

These engineering documents and data can be taken into the field to support offline access to the intelligent network model and they can be easily published via the web for use by other departments or organizations needing access to the information.
