Outside plant modeled the way engineers work

Track buried and aerial plant on Google Maps with strand-level connectivity — cables, multiducts, splice closures, splitters, MUX/DEMUX, patch panels, and drops linked end to end. Trace light paths to isolate faults and keep field updates on the same map your office uses.

The problem

Why OSP gets lost in generic tools

Lines on a map are not OSP inventory

Generic GIS treats fiber as polylines and points. OSP work requires knowing which strands splice where, which splitter ports feed which drops, and how plant connects through closures and patch panels.

Legacy OSP tools are aging out

Teams still on spreadsheets, AutoCAD sheets, or sunsetting OSP platforms struggle to keep strand records current. Every reroute and emergency repair that is not captured cleanly makes the next outage harder to diagnose.

Fault response needs connectivity not guesswork

When plant fails, operations needs to trace downstream impact from the map. Without strand-level records, crews roll trucks before they know which splices, ports, or drops are affected.

How it works

How OSP management works in MapItRight

Model, map, connect, trace.

STEP 01

Model the OSP elements you maintain

Define cables, multiducts, locations, splice closures, splitters, MUX/DEMUX, patch panels, patch cords, and drops with the plant types and icons your team already uses in the field.

STEP 02

Place and connect plant on Google Maps

Map routes and sites with accurate coordinates, then record splices and fiber connectivity across the network. Use Planned and Active states to separate design work from live outside plant.

STEP 03

Trace paths and update from the field

Trace light paths to see where connectivity breaks or light loss stops. Attach marker flags, photos, and video from the mobile browser so OSP changes stay tied to the assets they describe.

Capabilities

What OSP teams manage in MapItRight

Cables and multiducts

Buried and aerial routes with tube occupancy, including nested duct structures.

Locations and closures

Handholes, vaults, pedestals, NIDs, NAPs, and enclosure sites on the map.

Splice and strand connectivity

Record splices and strand paths through closures, splitters, and equipment.

Patch panels and patch cords

Track patching and port assignments with traceable end-to-end paths.

Light path tracing

Find breaks and the exact point where light loss stops during outages or design review.

Field evidence on assets

Marker flags, photos, and video attached to map locations and plant elements.

MapItRight makes OSP plant documentation quick and easy.

FAQ

Frequently asked.

Outside plant management software tracks fiber infrastructure outside the building
cables, conduit, splice closures, pedestals, vaults, and drops
with connectivity, not just geometry. MapItRight lets OSP engineers map plant on Google Maps, record splices and equipment, and trace light paths when operations needs to understand downstream impact.
