CableBuilder Enterprise is a Cable Design software application for every type of cable, from standard power cables to fiber-optic cables. The cable builder software was born out of the demand within the cable industry to simplify the complex management of cable design data from the initial design concept all the way through to delivering the full bill-of-materials directly to the ERP system.

1. Enterprise-level software for cable
design, costing & manufacturing
Built by experts from the cable industry

2. Faster inquiry-to-order cycle through
automations and integrations
Optimise efficiency of the design team as
repetitive tasks get automated
Optimise accuracy in cable cost calculations
for materials and manufacturing cost
Automatically generate drawings (2D/3D),
datasheets, catalogues, BOMs, routings,
quotes etc. from the design
