Course Objectives
The major driving force behind the widespread use of fiber optics communication is the high and rapidly increasing
consumer and commercial demand for more telecommunication capacity and internet services. Advances in technology have
enabled more data to be conveyed through a single optical fiber over long distances.
With the advancement of the Telecom network towards 4G, 4.5G and now the upcoming 5G, High Speed data transmission
is mandatory which can be provided by Optical Transmission. The day is not far when Fiber optic will be the only backbone
for all transmission system.
Telecontran offers this 3-day workshop on Fiber Optics Basics that covers an overview of the SDH and DWDM networking
elements and their technologiesalong with a comprehensive business and technical foundation in optical networks, services
and applications development.
After successful completion of this workshop, participants will be able to
- Understand the market trends and development for fiber optics which is now encroaching into many aspects of our day to day uses.
- Gain a comprehensive technical foundation in optical networking and its services and applications development
- Explore SDH and DWDM Architectures & Services
- Make informative decisions on cable design and alternative construction for various environments
- Learn about FTTx and necessary loss budgets along with the safety margins.
Target Audience
This course is specially designed for Engineers, Managers and Professionals who want a comprehensive overview on Optical Networking.
