Fiber & Telecom Installation
No ReKeying — Every Tech Arrives Knowing the Full History of That Unit
When a tech arrives at a site, the unit's full service history should be in their hand — not in a binder in the machine room or in a retired tech's memory. No ReKeying means every field entry becomes a permanent digital record linked to that specific equipment serial number.

How Equipment Service History Actually Looks in Fiber & Telecom Installation
The Scenario
A fiber splice crew is dispatched to repair a cut cable. They have no record of the previous splices in that span — splice case locations, the number of available fibers, or whether the buffer tubes were recolored at a prior repair.
The Real Impact
Without splice history at the span level, techs spend 60–90 minutes locating and opening the wrong cases before finding the fault — on a job where the ISP is tracking every minute of outage.
Does This Sound Like Your Fiber & Telecom Installation Operation?
- !Techs arrive with no knowledge of what was done to the unit last time
- !Service history is split across paper binders, emails, and one person's memory
- !Repeated diagnostics on the same unit because nobody documented the root cause
The Cost of Doing Nothing
Arriving without unit history adds 45–90 minutes of diagnostic re-work per service call. At $100/hour and 3 such calls per tech per week, that is $15K–$23K/year in wasted labor per technician.
What Fiber & Telecom Installation Companies Typically Use
