Fiber Network Supplementary List

Instruction Fiber Network audits:

To conduct a Fiber Network audit is considerably different from a RBS or Core audit. The main reason is that the Fiber Network audit will take place in different locations compared with audits of a RBS or Core nods where the audit will take place in only one location (one site). This is different because of the nature of a Fiber Network installation.

The Supplementary Information for Fiber Network has for this reason been divided in five sections. The sections are;

1. Central Terminal Point (CTP)

2. Feeder and Distribution Network (FDN)

3. Drops and Premises Network (DPN)

4. SP/ASP self-check lists (common checkpoints)

5. Other areas if appropriate (common checkpoints)

The auditor will be conducting an audit according to the checkpoints in section 1 or 2 or 3 together with the checkpoints in section(s) 4 and/or 5. One audit (in section 1 or 2 or 3) is considered as one site when the result is registered in QASIS database.

When auditing section 1 shall self-check list, Indoor Installation checklist 177 66-FDG 103 91/7 (checkpoint 5.9 in section 4) also be used.

When auditing section 2 or 3 shall also appropriate self-check list in section 4 be used (except 5.9 that is indoor). The civil works part that shall be audited together with the site is the route leading from the previous site to the audited site. That part of the civil works belongs to the audited site and shall be registered in QASIS database together with the site.

Explanation of the five Sections:

In a Fiber Network will it be different percentage of audits depending of which part of the installation that is audited. This is principle to follow:

Section 1: Central Terminal Point (CTP). Typical product in this section is Optical Distribution Frame (ODF), Fiber Joint Closure (FJC) and Fiber Distribution Hub (FDH) in the CTP building.

In Section 1, 50% of the installations in a project shall be subjected to QASIS audits. (This is comparable with a typical Core site audit).

Section 2: Feeder and Distribution. Typical equipment in this section is Duct Joint Closure (DJC)/ Fiber Joint Closure (FJC) and Feeder Distribution Point (FDP)/Fiber Distribution Hub (FDH).

In Section 2, 50% of the installations in a project shall be subjected to QASIS audits. (This is comparable with a typical RNC site audit).

Section 3: Drops and Premises. Typical equipment in this section is Fiber Access Terminal (FAT) and Fiber Joint Closure (FJC).

In Section 3, 20% of the installations in a project shall be subjected to QASIS audits. (This is comparable with a typical RBS site audit).

Section 4: SP/ASP self-check lists. In section 4 shall the auditor check that the SP/ASP has filled in the different self-check lists for the Civil Works part of the scope of work. These check lists shall be checked together with the equipment it belongs to in section 1-3.

Section 5: Other areas. In section 5 shall the auditor check Fiber Network Engineering, Fiber Network Test and Verification and Ecology Management. This shall be checked together with the equipment it belongs to in section 1-3.

The picture below describes a typical Fiber Network project. According to what already described shall this project be audited as follow; 50% audits for the equipment in Section 1, 50% audits for the equipment in Section 2 (1 separate audit per equipment if more than one), 20% audits for the equipment in Section 3 (1 separate audit per equipment). These audits can when registered in a project in QASIS database be divided in batches.

If audit of equipment belonging to Section 1: Central Terminal Point (CTP). Follow the checkpoints in section 1 (and 4 & 5 if applicable)

If audit of equipment belonging to Section 2: Feeder and Distribution. Follow the checklist section 2 (and 4 & 5 if applicable)

If audit of equipment belonging to Section 3: Drops and Premises. Follow the checklist section 3 (and 4 & 5 if applicable)
