Inventory and splicing

Physical network inventory readiness

Assess relationships, quality, and migration readiness.

Version 1.0

Object-relationship figure

Diagram linking sites, structures, cables, closures, trays, fibers, ports, equipment, stock items, work history, and evidence
Inventory readiness depends on explicit containment and connectivity relationships, not only a list of asset rows or points on a map.

Quality comparison

Score migration readiness by the decisions the target workflow must support, not by record count alone.
ConditionMigration riskReadiness action
Stable identifiers and explicit relationshipsLow risk of duplicate objects or broken lineage.Preserve identifiers and verify relationship counts before and after migration.
Geometry without connectivityRoutes display correctly but impact and capacity cannot be traced.Reconstruct containment and connectivity from approved sources before acceptance.
Conflicting asset statesTeams may reserve, install, or operate the wrong item.Name the authoritative source and resolve conflicts with an auditable decision.
Attachments without object linksEvidence cannot reliably support acceptance or maintenance.Map each file to its asset, work, source, owner, and capture context.

Worked example: closure reconciliation

Migration sample

Three source systems describe the same splice closure with different identifiers, positions, and status values. The migration sample keeps every source reference, establishes one target identity, compares geometry and containment, and flags the unresolved operational status for a named reviewer.

Only after the reviewer selects the authoritative state are cables, trays, fibers, work history, and evidence attached to the target object. The reconciliation decision remains available for later audit and correction.
