Hi Chris, it's an excellent point. And at sites with high turnover of
links, and copper mains often being the cheaper option, what good is
pencil and an eraser when the paper in the book has rubbed through to
the other side?<br>
<br>I think a spreadsheet is sufficient for the majority of krone/110
style vertical termination blocks and fiber termination points, but the
difficult part is getting human beings to update it. In some cases, like
when you have operators from 36 different subcontractors representing 7
different telcos working on the MDF on a weekly basis, it is
impossible. Sorry, I know that doesn't help much.<br>
<br>If you're looking for a spreadsheet template, you'd best start with the krone 1000 pair record book, krone product # <a href="tel:6462%203%20010-03" value="+16462301003" target="_blank">6462 3 010-03</a>.
I know it sounds unhelpful but it's the way it has been done for
decades. Don't throw out that F-set just yet, you're gonna need it :)<br>
