The purpose of this tool is to provide a quick overview of the health of all cables in the changeset. This is presented using three symbols for each cable:

•First symbol - Either a green or a red . If a red cross, there is a problem with the layout of the cable; it is not, directly or indirectly, running in a connected path of route objects.

•Second and Third symbols - These represent the connectivity status of the cable at its ends:

oRed - Not connected at all.

oYellow - Connected at the cable level but not at the fiber level.

oGreen - Connected at the cable level and at least one fiber is connected.

Selecting a cable entry provides more details than the symbols show, such as the number of connected fibers. A cable can also be expanded to show similar information as found in the related data tab of the cable's attribute form.

 

1.In the menu bar, select Tools > Connectivity status of cables. A side panel opens, listing the cables that are currently in the changeset.
