Circuit Management

Feature in Carrier Exchange

Track circuits, endpoints, and lifecycle.

Overview

Circuit Management tracks circuits, endpoints, and lifecycle. Know what is installed, where, when it renews, and what it costs. Maintain a circuit inventory across facilities.

Circuits include cross-connects, wavelengths, dark fiber, and other network services. Each circuit has endpoints, provider, contract dates, and cost.

Lifecycle tracking supports renewal management. Avoid surprise renewals. Plan for upgrades and migrations. Circuit data can feed GridTwin for topology.

How to Use

  1. Add a circuit. Enter provider, type, endpoints, contract dates, and cost. Link to site and assets.
  2. Track lifecycle. Renewal dates, contract terms. Set reminders for renewals and renegotiations.
  3. Update when circuits change. Upgrades, migrations, disconnects. Keep inventory accurate.
  4. Report. Total spend by provider, circuit count by site, renewal calendar. Export for planning.
