FiberPlanIT designs complete FTTx networks, even for large areas,

so you can decide based on reliable calculations.

generates a detailed Bill of Material and cost overview for each design

Make accurate estimates to support your business caseFiberPlanIT provides very reliable estimates of costs and revenue for specific areas. These include smart GIS-based calculations of cost per home passed, customer connection costs and adoption rates for possible projects. For each simulation, FiberPlanIT generates an accurate Bill of Material and a geographical network preview, giving you an insight of the cost structure and proposed design, fitted to the specific situation in your area.

Make the right technological choicesUse FiberPlanITs unrivaled flexibility to quickly evaluate different scenarios, selecting between numerous technologies and components. You can therefore quantify the impact of your design choices on deployment and operational costs, selecting the most effective design strategy.

Know where to deploy your networkFiberPlanIT provides you with reliable revenue and cost predictions per neighborhood, derived from geographic (GIS) and marketing data. The results help you easily identify the neighborhoods with the highest return on investment in the shortest period, increasing your profits.

Identify cost-optimized choicesFiberPlanIT presents you with optimal choices for locations of aggregation points, cable routes and splices, exploring the complex balance between those network components. Our best-in-class smart algorithms are the result of years of experience.

Fine-tune your planMake different OSP design choices and quantify the impact on costs in an iterative process. You can integrate last-minute field survey information and easily adapt the design. As such your engineers stay in complete control, creating the design that gives you the best trade-off between the cost to build the network, the practicality to build it and the operating costs.

Efficiently create high-quality plansFiberPlanIT makes your design process fast, allowing your engineers to design 7000 homes in less than 3 days. Additionally, the seamless integration with third party software for network operation facilitates the creation of network objects in the network documentation tool.
