Cocon Fiber
Cocon Fiber is a SaaS-based asset management system that makes every aspect of your fiber optic network fully visible and manageable, thereby helping you to safeguard the long-term value and ROI of these highly capital-intensive investments. The Cocon Fiber platform provides you with a single, consistently reliable source of the latest, most up-to date, and ‘true’ information regarding your network.
For network owners and anyone who manages fiber optic networks, Cocon Fiber is a powerful tool. Cocon Fiber was designed especially for fiber optics by Speer IT. It is the industry standard in the Netherlands for recording, tracking, and managing physical fiber optic networks. Large international telco organizations in other European countries such as Belgium, Germany, Spain, and Ireland have also implemented Cocon Fiber to help manage their fiber optics assets. We are proud to say that the major rollout of FttH taking place in Germany is supported by Cocon Fiber.
Applying our more than 20 years of experience in fiber optics and listening to customer input, Speer IT has been able to develop Cocon Fiber into a unique product that offers a total concept for managing the extensive networks in the fiber optics industry. A whopping 95% of the Dutch FttH network is managed with Cocon Fiber.
The Cocon Fiber solution is provided as a SaaS model with an underlying Oracle database and smart redundant hosting. This means fewer IT headaches for our customers when it comes to the nitty-gritty of network administration like hardware, database management, continuous deployment, back-ups, and user management.
Cocon Fiber supports the entire process of construction, planning, and sales with real-time, up-to-date information and can manage everything from notifications, documentation, activation, and maintenance, to resolving outages or simply the daily activities of network management. The system also provides excellent decision support for new connections and network modifications.
Cocon Fiber brings all these processes together in a single integrated solution. It offers robust and real-time visual insights into the network that includes every conceivable component: fiber type, splices, patches, permits, POPs, DPs, addresses, x-y coordinates, and a whole lot more. Network contractors who have designed and built fiber optic networks for network owners (or have been contracted for maintenance) can upload the network details into Cocon Fiber automatically, using the open and easy-to-use market standard format.
To safeguard the integrity of your network data, Cocon Fiber performs more than 350 automated checks before approving the upload. Network owners can quickly review the data before adding it to the permanent asset records in Cocon Fiber. In addition to protecting the integrity of the database, having these checks performed before ‘signing off’ on the network when it is delivered helps you to ensure your contractors have provided all the data you need to manage the network efficiently over the long term.
- For network owners: safeguard the value of your assets and manage capacity proactively
- For network managers: design routes, calculate new connections, and manage (planned) outages
- For contractors: measure work done using GPS coordinates and deliver data directly from on-site

Asset management is becoming increasingly important to us. Our success is based on premium SLAs. If your asset management is of poor quality, then you can’t deliver on the SLAs and that has serious negative consequences.
