Fiber Manager Toolbar

The Fiber Manager toolbar provides the tools to create and edit fiber splice connections, manage, edit and delete circuits, trace fiber networks, and produce reports.

The following example depicts a customized toolbar containing all available icons and tools. Your Fiber Manager toolbar may look different depending on your specific toolbar configuration.

	Connection Manager	Use the Connection Manager to create new fiber connections or edit existing connections.
	Fiber Trace	The Fiber Trace highlights an end-to-end path of connected fibers, and can generate a report about that path.
	OTDR Trace	Use the Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) Trace to highlight a specified distance along a path of connected fibers. You can also use it to generate a report about that path.
	Clear Graphics	Clear the highlighted results of an OTDR trace or a Circuit Manager trace.
	Possible Paths Tool	Use the Possible Paths Tool to find each possible path — including the shortest path — from specified start and end points in the fiber network. The results can be filtered based on trace parameters that you specify.
	Patch Panel Connection Report	The Patch Panel Connection Report generates an HTML report of attributes and connections for single or multiple pieces of equipment (such as a patch panel) in locations that you specify.
	Splice Report Tool	The Splice Report generates a color-coded textual report of all the splices that exist at a single splice point.
	Fiber Allocation Report	The Fiber Allocation Report provides a graphical display of the connections between every fiber in a fiber optic cable that is part of a selected set.
	Glass Report	Use the Glass Report to summarize characteristics of fiber optic cables that are part of a selected set of cables in the fiber optic network or on the entire network of fiber optic cables.
	Circuit Manager	Use Circuit Manager to view, create, edit, and delete circuits associated with a single end-to-end path consisting of fibers, fiber connections, and/or device ports.
	Location Editor	Use the Location Editor to add related objects to existing features using Favorites.
	Fiber User Settings	Set the tracing type, default values for splice types, and whether Connection Manager displays disconnect warnings.
	Fiber Trace Schematic	Create a schematic diagram based on a fiber trace.
	Trace, Place, Connect	Trace an existing path, then place and connect favorites within that path.
The following button does not appear on the toolbar by default, but may be added using the Customize menu.
	Fiber Connection Conflict Resolution	Use the Fiber Connection Conflict Resolution tool to resolve fiber connection conflicts in a versioned SDE geodatabase.
