Course description
Moving your network into the desktop takes time, initiative and planning. But most of all, it takes knowledge. Both the installer and the end-user need to understand what is available and what is feasible.
This course is designed for those who design, install or maintain fiber optic systems in commercial buildings and other facilities. It identifies you as an installer who demonstrates a practical knowledge of fiber optic theory, codes, standards and practices widely accepted in commercial buildings and customer-owned outside environments (campus).
This course incorporates hands-on training of fiber terminations, cable preparations, installation practices and certification testing procedures. Students will learn skills applicable to all the functions required to safely and competently install advanced fiber communications cabling.
This course will give students a deeper understanding of how to assemble, cable, and test various commercial building systems utilizing, FTTD, a high-bandwidth solution that expands the traditional fiber backbone system directly to desktops and pushes the available bandwidth beyond 10G. This course also explores passive optical networks (PON), commonly utilized in FTTH applications, and its use in commercial buildings.
