We know each customer is unique. Your Network is structured in a way that works for you and FastLight has been designed to work WITH your system, not AGAINST it.

 

Agreeing on a format for naming components in your Network should take place as part of the Network Planning stage BEFORE installation has even taken place.  From the country as a whole all the way down to individual fibers within cables, everything needs to be clearly identified. Having this in place from Day 1 means it can be used from the outset in its correct form, and there will be no last minute rushed decisions which may cause problems further down the line.

 

FastLight can discover a fault in your system and pin point where it is if the architecture is done correctly.

 

We recommend naming your Location and Sub-Locations in full for complete clarity. For example, England rather than 'Eng.'

 

It is only once you get to POP level and beyond that abbreviations may be helpful to keep your names short and simple, yet easy to identify.
