For fiber field technicians

Track every strand.
Never lose the fault.

When you are diagnosing a major outage with hundreds of strands, fatigue is the enemy. Strand Tracker keeps every buffer tube, color, reading, and photo organized — online or off — so your whole crew stays in sync and hands the fault down cleanly, from the splice point to the NOC.

Everything a diag tech needs, in one place

Purpose-built for the realities of fiber restoration work.

Visual strand map

See every strand at a glance in a color-coded grid. Tap to cycle status in a single motion, jump to the next untested strand, or multi-select and update dozens at once.

TIA-598 auto color coding

Pick a fiber count from 12 to 864 and the app auto-generates every buffer tube and strand with correct industry-standard colors and labels.

OTDR diagnostics & .sor import

Upload a .sor trace straight from your OTDR and the strand fills itself in — dB loss, distance to fault, and event table — with a suggested verdict against your own pass/fail thresholds.

NMS & OLT alarm intake

Point your monitoring system at your private alarm webhook and outages open themselves — strands pre-built, details enriched from inventory, duplicate alarms filtered out.

Cable inventory autofill

Import your GIS or OSS cable plant from CSV once. From then on, typing a cable ID auto-fills fiber count, route, and location on every new outage.

Ticketing & dispatch webhooks

Push outage created, assigned, resolved, and reopened events to ServiceNow, Jira, Salesforce, Zapier, or any HTTP endpoint — with HMAC-signed payloads and one-click test pings.

Works fully offline

Install it like an app and keep working deep in a vault or manhole with no signal. Every edit is queued and syncs the moment you reconnect.

Photo evidence

Snap and attach photos to any strand — splice trays, connector faces, OTDR traces — so the whole crew sees exactly what you saw.

Real-time crew sync

Multiple techs on the same cable see each other’s updates live. No stepping on each other, no duplicated work, no stale readings.

Assignments & roles

Assign outages to specific technicians and filter to what’s yours. Owner, Admin, Technician, and Viewer roles keep access under control.

Full activity log

Every status change, assignment, and bulk edit is timestamped and attributed. Scroll the timeline to see exactly how a fault was cleared.

Reports & handoff

Share a live read-only link with your NOC, export a clean CSV, or generate a polished PDF diagnostic report — in seconds.

How it works

From sign-up to handoff in three simple steps.

01

Enroll your company

Sign up in seconds and create your organization. You become the Owner and can add your whole team.

02

Log the outage

Create an outage, pick the cable size, and the app builds every strand for you — properly labeled and colored.

03

Diagnose & hand off

Mark strands good, bad, or suspect as you work, then share the live status downstream without losing your place.
