FTTH Technology & Operation
Course Description
This comprehensive course provides the necessary background to understand the fundamentals of fiber optics transmission and distribution systems and their individual components including fibers, cable construction, connectors, splices, test equipment, communication basics, transmission basis and distribution basis. Participants will use this knowledge to develop the required techniques for design, installations and maintenance of FTTH systems as a direct application for the fiber optics distribution systems.

Telecommunications engineers and technicians, maintenance engineers and technicians, process control engineer, project engineers, Electrical engineers, consulting engineers, systems engineers, project managers, electricians.

This is an interactive course. There will be open question and answer sessions, regular group exercises and activities, videos, case studies, and presentations on best practice. Participants will have the opportunity to share with the facilitator and other participants on what works well and not so well for them, as well as work on issues from their own organizations.
