Global fiber infrastructure transformation

Challenge

Managing a global fiber network across multiple regions presented significant complexities. Multiple existing systems for network data management led to inconsistencies in documentation, making it challenging to maintain standardized practices across regions.

Problem

Without a unified system for fiber documentation and inventory management, tracking network utilization and planning for capacity needs became increasingly complex. As the network continued to expand globally, existing systems faced growing challenges in managing detailed strand-level connectivity across their extensive infrastructure.

Solution

As part of their commitment to modernize network management practices globally, the company selected 3-GIS as their technology partner, implementing 3-GIS | Web, 3-GIS | Admin, and APIs. The implementation is being rolled out region by region, allowing for careful adoption and optimization of the system across their global operations. During testing, 3-GIS demonstrated superior performance in tracing large data center cables, a critical requirement for their infrastructure.

By implementing 3-GIS | Network Solutions, the organization can:

• Improve network uptime through enhanced visibility and management capabilities

• Track and analyze network utilization more effectively

• Manage complex network connectivity at scale

• Access and update network data in real-time

• Standardize fiber documentation practices across all global regions

• Streamline operations through automated processes

• Build custom solutions around the core platform to support diverse business units

This modern, web-based approach provides the scalability and  performance needed to manage their extensive global infrastructure while enabling future growth and integration capabilities.
