Curious as to why you think a DB is necessary. Is it from reporting requirements? Been doing this for 43 years and never had the fiber or copper in a DB. Tried a couple of times but always went back to spreadsheets.

Honestly the sooner you get it into a GeoDatabase the better. If you plan on growing the fiber system you are eventually going to have to do it. The more old information you have to add the harder it is. Doesn’t really matter that much which system you use or if it’s something home-brew but it needs to be in a database, not a spreadsheet.

Revisiting this.

I've been trying to find something besides spreadsheets to document splices / splice cases, but cannot find anything that isn't an all-inclusive package with a matching monthly fee. Does anyone know of anything out there that works for this? I've been trying to use spreadsheets, but find them extraordinarily cumbersome. I'm starting to think some graphing paper and a pencil might be the only option.

I don't really need mapping, but something that involves mapping/GIS/splice documentation may be useful as well.

Thanks.
