Design outputs

Review your Fiber Design, then create the outputs you need: bill of materials, service areas, splice tables, construction prints, exports and reports.

Once your design is complete and up to date, the Artifacts and Reports steps open. This article covers each output and where to find out more.

Review the design

Before creating outputs, check the design itself:

  • Use the legend to look at one tier at a time.
  • Click hubs and cables to see their details.
  • Use the features table to find outliers.
