Graphic Symbols for Cable Systems
The scope of this documentation is to illustrate the symbols recommended for Telecommunication drafting needs. It also provides recommendations for attributes both visible on the drafted map as well as embedded in the symbol when building a database mapping application. This will provide better data capturing and provide a better source of record for internal and external users. It will provide much better benefit when moving to a mobile solutions to our boundary partners. With the need for a cleaner and more intuitive maps the data captured is needed in more granular detail of information with embedded attributes or extended symbol attributes which allows for more comprehensive data. Due to the necessary crowding of symbols onto telecommunication system mapping and grid diagrams, some symbols are structured differently than those used in electrical and electronic diagrams.
