Backbone Cables
Backbone cables are run between termination hardware. These cables are often commonly
known to run from building to building and closet to closet.
Note : NetDoc was built to allow for several connection types depending on the end user’s needs.
By providing this functionality, NetDoc will allow for Backbone Cables to connection to
Hardware, through Splices, and Backbone related Assets if needed.
See also Backbone Source and Destination .
In NetDoc , adding a Backbone Cable is comprised of a number of steps reflected in the tabs in
the Backbone Cables Detail View.
