Cable & Circuit Management Need a powerful cable and circuit management solution? Try netTerrain Now

Seamlessly Track Cable & Circuit Changes

Are you still tracking your cable and circuit documentation in out-of-date spreadsheets or Visio diagrams?

Poor cable management can lead to a number of inefficiencies that directly affect the bottom line: slower troubleshooting because circuits cannot be properly traced, stranded ports and subcomponents due to partial decommissioning of fiber connectivity…and the list goes on.

Many companies overlook the importance of cable and circuit management in a Data Center Infrastructure Management solution, but cables and circuits are the entities that glue it all together! Having a proper cable management software and a sound circuit management process in place are key to a successful, integral DCIM implementation.

Power Cable Management
  • Create and model your own power cable types with unlimited custom properties and rules – in minutes!
  • Track any properties for power cables including type, amperage, length, and any number of custom fields
  • Display power connectivity down to the power plug and color code cables based on your own criteria
  • Create power circuit layout records for end-to-end tracing of each power feed

Customer Success Story: UBL

cable-management-software

"The Java-based system we had for our cable and asset management just wasn’t cutting it anymore. From installation to implementation and adoption, netTerrain delivered. netTerrain saves us time and money – and simplifies our work with its incredible usability. Without question, it’s more efficient, faster and cost-effective than the previous system we had.”

Savings
Money & time saved by switching to netTerrain.

netTerrain DCIM can be used as an ideal cable management solution for copper and fiber cabling, circuit management (from layer 1 to layer 7), or even wireless and radio connectivity, both for inside and outside plant.

With netTerrain’s cable management features you will trouble shoot things quickly using our circuit layout records and circuit mapping, more efficiently manage inventory by carefully tracking occupancy and connectivity down to the connector detail and save money in assets due to proper commissioning and decommissioning of ports and sub-components.
