PHYSICAL NETWORK DIAGRAM SOFTWARE

Map the path beneath
the logical network.

Connect racks, hardware, ports, fibre, outlets and carrier services in one maintained physical record built from what technicians verify on site.

SHORT ANSWER

A physical network diagram shows the real cabinets, equipment, ports, outlets and cable routes used by the network. CABVIX keeps those relationships connected to the operational site record.

THE PHYSICAL LAYER IN CONTEXT

See more than
a device and an address.

01 · CABINETS

Racks and equipment

Record rooms, rack units, panels, switches, trays, shelves and installed hardware.

02 · CONNECTIONS

Ports and patching

Connect patch-panel positions, switch ports, lead colours, PoE, tags and device destinations.

03 · PATHS

Outlets, fibre and uplinks

Document wall sockets, inter-rack links, switch uplinks, fibre paths and internet services.

FROM SITE TO PATH

Locate. Connect. Trace. Maintain.

01

Build the locations

Organise clients, sites, rooms and cabinets around the physical environment.

02

Place the hardware

Create the rack view and identify the equipment and ports present.

03

Record the links

Map copper, fibre, uplinks, outlets and internet paths between their real endpoints.

04

Update each change

Keep repatching, moves and discovered paths in the maintained record and history.

BUILT TO COMPLEMENT YOUR TOOLSET

The record monitoring tools
do not provide.

MONITORING

Logical state and performance

Monitoring platforms tell teams what is reachable, active or changing across the logical network.

SERVICE MANAGEMENT

Incidents and work

PSA and ticketing tools coordinate requests, ownership and service activity.

CABVIX

Physical route and evidence

CABVIX records which cabinet, panel, port, lead, outlet and physical path supports the connection.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Physical network mapping FAQs

What is a physical network diagram?

It records where cabinets, equipment, panels, ports, outlets and cable paths exist and how they are physically connected.

How is this different from logical mapping?

Logical maps focus on addresses, devices and traffic relationships. CABVIX documents the real cabinet, port, cable and outlet path.

Can CABVIX document inter-rack links?

Yes. CABVIX supports inter-rack links, switch uplinks, fibre paths and other physical connections.

Does CABVIX automatically discover the network?

No. CABVIX is a maintained record built from verified field information, not an automatic logical discovery tool.

Can a path be traced from outlet to switch?

Yes. Documented outlet, patch-panel and switch-port assignments provide the physical route through the site.

Can the record cover multiple sites?

Yes. CABVIX organises physical records across clients, sites, rooms and racks for teams responsible for distributed infrastructure.
