Inventory and splicing
Splice documentation workflow
Capture tray, fiber, and evidence in one accepted path.
Version 1.0
Tray and fiber sequence
- Open the assigned closure, approved splice plan, cable ends, tray allocation, and work package.
- Confirm the physical cable, tube, fiber, port, and tray identifiers before recording a relationship.
- Capture the actual splice path, changed tray position, measurements, photographs, and technician context.
- Validate duplicate use, impossible continuity, missing evidence, and differences from the approved plan.
- Submit the completed path for review and update the operational connectivity only after acceptance.
Evidence matrix
| Evidence | Acceptance question | Required context |
|---|---|---|
| Closure and tray photographs | Is the documented physical arrangement visible and identifiable? | Closure, tray, timestamp, technician, and work package. |
| Splice relationship | Which incoming and outgoing fibers are connected? | Cable ends, tubes, fibers, tray position, and plan version. |
| Test result | Does the installed path meet the agreed measurement rule? | Measured path, instrument or source, threshold, and result. |
| Deviation and approval | Why does the installed state differ from the plan, and who accepted it? | Baseline, reason, evidence, reviewer, and decision. |
Worked example: tray reassignment
Accepted-path worked example
The approved plan places a fiber pair in tray two, but the technician finds that position unavailable and records the pair in tray three. The submission links the closure, both cable ends, tubes, fibers, new tray position, photographs, measurement result, reason, and technician to the same work package.
Validation identifies the deviation and checks that neither fiber is already used elsewhere. A reviewer accepts the reassignment, after which the live connectivity and tray record update together while the planned position and acceptance decision remain traceable.
