  • Fibre optic connection layouts

  • Cable and fibre routing

  • Splice plans and splice tray layouts

  • Junction boxes and connector interfaces

  • Sensor mounting concepts

  • Brackets, housings, covers, plates, fixtures, and mechanical interfaces

  • Assembly and installation details

Create production-ready documentation:

  • 3D models and 2D manufacturing drawings

  • Assembly drawings
