Configure Model Names

Because Wavepoint is published from a map service with Fiber Manager data, most of the model names below were likely assigned during your Fiber Manager implementation. However, where Fiber Manager is a flexible data model, Wavepoint is not, and thus you should still confirm the model name assignments below, and configure them if they are missing.

The topic areas below use the table names and field names as seen in the Fiber Manager sample data. Your company might have changed these names. That is OK, because Wavepoint only cares about the model names assigned to those tables and fields. All model name assignments occur in ArcCatalog using the ArcFM Properties Manager.

For more information about Fiber Manager model name assignments, see the help topics Create and Configure Feature Classes and Create and Configure Tables.
For more information about model names in general, see the help topic Example Configuration Workflow

All possible fiber facilities are included in this list, but that does not imply you have to include them in your implementation. For example, Wavepoint supports small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceivers. If your fiber network does not incorporate those devices, that is OK and you do not need to configure them in your geodatabase.

Devices and Ports

In Fiber Manager , a device is a related object inside another fiber facility (for example, a media device on a rack inside a patch location).

Commonly, a device is related to a patch location. In addition, a device may also be related to a device feature class. In other words, there can be a feature class called device which has a geography on the map, and that feature class has a related device in it. To differentiate between the two, the sample data uses the name “Device” for the feature class and the name “F_Device” for the object table. The way the application understands the difference is by the model name assignments: device feature classes need the class model name ENDDEVICEPOINT, while device object tables need the class model name ENDDEVICE. Because all the connection activity occurs at the related object level, the feature class itself does not need any field model names beyond GLOBALID.

Splitters

In Fiber Manager , a splitter can be a related object inside another fiber facility (for example, a splitter inside a splice case), and a splitter can also be modeled as a stand-alone feature class. Wavepoint supports splitters as related objects, but it does not support splitters as stand-alone feature classes. If at your site, your splitters are feature classes in Fiber Manager , they need to be migrated to related objects to be usable in Wavepoint .

IMPORTANT: The contents of FIBERGRIDPOSITION fields can remain null if those fields are for an object that does not belong to a rack.

IMPORTANT: The attribute field that has the field model name FIBERTRACEREPORTFIELD becomes the name of the splitter as seen on the Assets tab of the parent splice case.

In Fiber Manager, the FIBERTRACEREPORTFIELD is allowed to be assigned to many fields so that they appear on the Fiber Trace Report. Wavepoint only allows one field to act as the name. So, how does Wavepoint decide which field to use as the name if the field model name is assigned to multiple fields?

Wavepoint uses the attribute field that received the FIBERTRACEREPORTFIELD field model name first. For example, if during the implementation, the fields Name, Manufacturer, and Install Date received this model name in that order, Wavepoint uses the Name field. Had it been assigned in the order of Manufacturer, Name, and Install Date, Wavepoint would use the Manufacturer as the name. If Wavepoint is not using the name you prefer, remove this field model name from all fields, then re-assign making sure the name field you need in Wavepoint receives the model name first. The order has no effect on Fiber Manager.
