BetterProposals - unlimited use for a monthly subscription of $100. This product can handle projects with up to 7680 cables and 10 telecommunications rooms. To start saving time and delivering better proposals go to Get Started above.This product is currently under construction and unavailable.

This product has the following features and limitations:

  1. Will let you define copper or fiber backbone/tie cables between (10) telecommunications rooms in any configuration. The appropriate quantity of patch panels, 110 blocks, fiber connectors, fiber adaptor plates and fiber box size will automatically be defined.
  2. All (10) telecommunications rooms can be used for termination of up to 768 station cables. If you have less than 10 telecommunications rooms, rooms can be combined to allow more cables per room.
  3. Racks required to support the station and backbone/tie cables will automatically be configured. The
    appropriate number of patch panels or 110 blocks required to support the stations will be
    automatically defined.
  4. Additional racks and cabinets can be defined.
  5. Multiple choices will be offered for rack orientation in the Telecommunication Room. A drawing
    representing this will be provided as part of the proposal.
  6. Cable management appropriate for the number of patch panels will be automatically defined
  7. (2) types of UTP station cables can be defined from each from each telecommunications room
