The Esri team is continuing to refine and improve the data model for comms data management on ArcGIS Utility Network Management. Use this thread to provide input on the requirements of the data model, capabilities of the telecom network, ask questions about the network, access early versions of data models, and stay up to date on the latest news.

Thanks! That worked.
Hello Patrick,
Any chance these are available as a .style rather than a .stylx? We're Using ArcFM and will be on Desktop for some time.
Hello everyone,
we are implementing Communications Utility Network Foundation for an Airport.
We must model one logical switch, composed by 4 phisical switch (each with 4 ports in and 48 out) connected together.
I ask for best practice between:
In your opinion what is the recommended scenario?
Thanks
There are a few options, but you could have many switches in the same chassis, like this:
Hi Mike, scenario in your image is for 2 independent phisical switches.
My question is about 1 logical switch composed by different phisical switches connected togheter so that it behaves as a unique switch.
Interesting "Loc" used for Rack, what field you used for "Loc"? I don't have one...
Thanks
Damiano
Sure, you can do that if you want.
Loc is just an attribute. Think when I build the base of these slides a long time ago, we had one field, but now there are multiple fields for location info.
Hello.
I've discovered a new release of Communications Utility Network Foundation, that support "Distribution Cable Components" as controller of Cable Tier Subnetwork.
In my previous Asset Package, "Distribution Cable Components" isn't supported, only "Regional Cable Components".
Now I want to adopt new Asset Package but not lost data of my current FGDB.
What's best way to do so?
I tried to run "Apply Asset Package" with this parameters:
-Asset Package is the new from Fundation.
-Input Utility Network is my current FGDB
This is resulting error:
ArcGIS Pro 2.9.1.32739
untools 2.9.3
Executing from ArcGIS Pro, 0 map(s), activeMap = False
Parallel processing enabled: 6
Asset Package schema version: 2.9
Removed whitespace from the following geodatabase items:
Field/AliasName: 'DWG_File
'
Staging directory -- C:\DATI\Utility Network\ESRI SOLUTION TELCO 2022\___XXXXXXX\AP_Workspace
The asset package has the following errors (9/9):

Where I'm wrong?
Thank a lot...
You will need to create a new utility network and then port your data into that new UN. You cannot apply the new asset package on top of your utility network. I suggest using Data Loading Tools. It is probably best to export your UN to an Asset Package and map the classes and the C_ tables to the new Asset Package.
Ok, now it's clear that Apply Asset Package isn't the right tool.
But, isn't clear for me this step "and map the classes and the C_ tables to the new Asset Package".
Where I can find documentation about this?
Many Thanks...
Damiano
It is not documented anywhere. It is a data migration moving from one model to another. If you do not need any of the new functions, there is no reason to move to the new model.
