Project support
Project support from survey to as-built.
We turn the site survey into an optical/power budget, a bill of materials, a pilot, a documentation pack and a staged delivery plan. The local contractor installs; we support the chain.

Delivery and as-built
Installation, trenching and splicing stay with the local contractor. The detailed phase outputs are below.
What project support is
Four deliverables before and after the shipment.
For integrators, contractors and project owners: the engineering and documentation support that turns a site survey into a buildable, testable and handover-ready package. This is not a case-study page and not an installation service.
Design support
Endpoint list, route length, mains and load become a split ratio, an optical budget and a PoE/PoF load calculation.
BOM and quotation
OLT/ONU, splitter, PoE/PoF, cable, ODF and spares, with the assumptions behind each line.
Pilot / FAT
One site or one batch configured on the actual headend, tested and recorded before the rollout.
Documentation and delivery
Datasheets, test data, packing list, HS code, as-built labels and a staged shipment plan.
Installation, trenching, splicing and ISP operations stay with the local contractor. The scope boundary is set out below.
Start here
Six answers are enough to start.
You do not need a finished design or a full bill of materials. Send these six inputs and we will return the missing questions, the first budget and a pilot scope.
Send the six inputsSend the data through the contact form or WhatsApp. Drawings are welcome but not required to start.
Endpoint count
Cameras, APs, rooms, readers or meters.
Longest run
From the nearest powered cabinet to the farthest endpoint.
Mains at the endpoint
Yes or no; if no, the distance to the nearest board.
Load per device
Nominal and peak watts, including IR, heater or PoE class.
Country and destination
For plug, voltage, HS code and the document set.
Services involved
CCTV, Wi-Fi, FTTH, CATV, access control or a mix.
Lifecycle
Five phases, five deliverables.
Each phase produces a document the next phase can use. That is what keeps a multi-site rollout from turning into a series of site visits.
Site data sheet
Endpoint list, distance, mains, load, country. Output: a design input table.
Optical and power budget
Split ratio, fibre/connector/splice loss, 3 dB margin, PoE/PoF load. Output: the calculation.
Bill of materials
OLT/ONU, splitter, PoE/PoF, cable, ODF, spares. Output: a quote with assumptions.
Pilot / FAT
One site or one batch configured and tested on the actual headend. Output: a test record and a go/no-go.
Delivery and as-built
Staged shipment, datasheets, test data, packing list, HS code, port/connector labels. Output: the handover pack.
Pilot programme
Prove one site before the rollout.
A pilot is the cheapest way to find a mismatch in the OLT profile, the ONT firmware, the splitter polish or the switch budget. It is also the fastest way to get the installer comfortable with the chain.
One building or one gate
A small, representative slice of the real project — not a bench demo.
Configured for the site
The OLT/ONU or switch/PoF pair is configured with the actual VLAN, split and connector plan.
Test record
Optical power, PoE/PoF load and registration are recorded and compared with the design.
Deployment & commissioning
What the installer needs to get right.
A pilot proves the design; the installation decides whether it survives. These are the checks that most often change the handover record.
ODF and cable
12/24/96-port ODF, SC/UPC or SC/APC adapters, patch cords, trays and bend radius. Label both ends before the cable is pulled.
Fibre into the room
Use conduit or a dedicated route, keep the bend radius, leave a service loop and terminate in a wall box or ONT tray.
ONU placement
Ventilation, mounting height, adapter clearance, fibre tray and a label the next technician can read. Avoid heat sources and tight cabinets.
Grounding and surge
Bond the enclosure, protect the 48 V pair at the entry and use the specified SPD. A missing protective earth is a common installation error.
Optical loss and test
Measure connector, splice and splitter loss, compare with the budget and record the result per port. Clean before you measure.
Cabinet wiring and handover
Use the small or large-scenario wiring diagram, label ports, record the as-built and hand over the cloud/project-sharing access.
If you want this checklist applied to a specific site, send the drawings and the device list; we will mark the missing inputs.
Discuss a projectDocumentation pack
What the handover includes.
| Document | Purpose | When |
|---|---|---|
| Model datasheet | Ports, optics, power, temperature, management | With the quote |
| Optical / power budget | Worst-case margin and load assumptions | With the quote |
| Splitter test data | Insertion loss and return loss per batch | With the shipment |
| Packing list | Quantities, weights, dimensions | With the shipment |
| HS code + Incoterm | Customs and freight basis | With the invoice |
| As-built label plan | Port, device and connector mapping | Before dispatch |
Scope boundary
What we do not do
- Cable trenching, ducting or pole foundations
- Fusion splicing and on-site termination
- Installation labour and civil works
- ISP licensing or broadband operations
These are carried out by the local contractor. We supply the design, equipment and documentation, and support the commissioning remotely.
A note on references
Project names and photos are shared only with customer permission. We do not publish invented cases or stock photos labelled as our projects. For a tender, tell us the market and the project type and we will confirm what can be released.
Project FAQ
Project questions before the order.
If your question is not here, send the site details and we will answer with the calculation, not a brochure.
Ask an engineerCan I see a case study for my market?
We publish project references only with the customer’s permission. Tell us the market, the project type and the scale; if there is a relevant reference we can share, we will send it under the agreed terms. We do not publish invented client names or stock photos labelled as our projects.
What does a pilot include?
A pilot is one building, one floor or one gate: a small set of OLT/ONU or switch/PoF units configured for the actual site, tested against the design and documented. It validates the optical budget, the management profile and the installation before the full order.
Who does the installation?
The local contractor or integrator. We supply the design, the equipment and the documentation; we do not provide splicing, trenching or on-site installation. Remote design support is available during commissioning.
What documentation comes with a project order?
Model datasheets, splitter batch test data, the optical/power budget, packing list, HS code, Incoterm and the as-built port/connector plan. The exact document set is stated on the quotation.
Can you ship in phases?
Yes. A project can be staged by building, floor or area so the first phase is live before the full rollout. The staging plan and the shipping terms are agreed before the order.
Do you provide training?
A commissioning note and a remote walkthrough are included for the integrator’s team. Formal on-site training is quoted separately and depends on the destination.
Is project support included in the quotation?
The site data review, optical/power budget, BOM and documentation pack are part of the quotation. A pilot/FAT, formal training and remote commissioning support are scoped separately and stated on the quotation.
Next step
Start with one site, not the whole rollout.
Send the site data and we will propose a pilot scope, a design record and a staged delivery plan.
No obligation. The plan states its assumptions so your engineer can check it.
