Course description
This course is a hands-on/application-focused course which sets the foundation of a copper-based structured cabling system installation. The course includes topics on professionalism, copper transmission principles and general safety practices associated with copper cabling. A significant amount of course time is spent on BICSI best practices for the installation, termination and testing of copper cable as outlined in the 8th edition of the Information Technology Systems Installation Methods Manual (ITSIMM). As ICT systems become more complex, your need to be recognized for your knowledge of current and emerging installation practices becomes more critical. This course offers multiple opportunities for hands-on practice. Activities include learning to:
Perform advanced IDC terminations (210 and GigaBIX) Terminate STP cable to patch panels and wall outlets Terminate coaxial cable using a BNC connector Test copper cabling installations
