Design FTTH networks on a map your team will actually use
MapItRight was built by people who ran ISPs and lived the design-to-field handoff. Plan each build as a project on Google Maps, draw fiber routes manually, keep design in Planned state, and export BOMs and splice reports when construction is ready.
Why FTTH design still feels harder than it should
Design lives in the wrong tools
Many teams still sketch routes in AutoCAD or Google Earth, count materials in Excel, and rebuild contractor maps somewhere else. Every handoff adds translation errors before anyone in the field sees the plan.
Design and inventory are not the same record
When the splice sheet, BOM, and map all come from different files, construction crews build from whatever export was latest. Field changes rarely make it back — and the design file goes stale within the first build season.
No clear path from design to operations
Without one project map that can move from Planned to Active, teams redesign the same network twice: once for construction, again for operations. That is extra work operators should not have to carry.
How FTTH design works in MapItRight
Project, map, design, export.
Create a project for the build area
Start a project for your greenfield area, expansion, or repair job. Keep design plant in Planned state so future work stays separate from live operational inventory on the same map.
Place plant and draw fiber on Google Maps
Add locations, cables, multiducts, and equipment with accurate coordinates. Draw fiber routes, splices, splitters, and drops the way your team already thinks about the network.
Validate and export construction deliverables
Trace light paths to catch connectivity issues before construction. Export the BOM to PDF or XLSX, generate splice and contractor outputs, and hand the same project to field crews when buildout begins.
What FTTH design teams get in MapItRight
Project-based design
Organize each build in its own project with clear ownership and lifecycle states.
Google Maps canvas
Design on the same map your operations and field teams will use after go-live.
Planned design state
Keep future design separate from Active plant until you are ready to move into construction.
Fiber connectivity modeling
Model splices, splitters, patch panels, and MUX/DEMUX with traceable end-to-end paths.
Light path validation
Find breaks and light-loss stops during design review instead of discovering them in the field.
Planning exports
BOM to PDF or XLSX, splice outputs, GeoJSON/KML backup, and Construction Staking Sheet handoff.
