The qualification will be referencing the BSEN50173 and BEN50174 series of standards

This Level 3, 5 Day course consisting of the Core Modules 301, 302 & Fibre Optic Cabling Units 303; aims to provide delegates with the opportunity to become much more conversant and skilled with fibre optics – from a deeper understanding of standards, operational modes, WDM/DWDM, splitters. amplifiers and much more – delegates can use this newly acquired knowledge to vastly improve key skills, ranging from being able to do advanced testing, to carrying out evaluation, on the most appropriate fibre optic cabling that are commonly available in the communications cabling industry.

Delegates will develop their knowledge and understanding of different types of fibre, their uses and some of the standards associated with them.

Delegates will also build upon their knowledge of fibre testing techniques and when these are applied.

CORE MODULES:

Unit 301: The aim of this unit is to enable delegates to gain an understanding of health and safety, and to develop and increase the knowledge required for site surveys, risk assessments, methods statements, SSOW – safe working practices and behaviours, whether working in an internal network and in the external network, including underground, overhead and the public highway.

Unit 302: The aim of this unit is to enable delegates to gain an understanding of the fundamental of complex transmission technologies – this will include PON, LAN’s, SAN’s and data centres.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PLEASE ensure that you read through the information provided for this training course, including the expectations of candidates, fully before booking – we are here to advise and we welcome you to contact us if you have any questions.

It is aimed at *experienced* Data and Fibre Optic cabling Engineers who are currently installing and testing a full range of class D/Class E/Class EA and MM/SM fibre optic systems and are seeking to obtain a Level 3 Qualification in Network Infrastructure, Enterprise Networks, PON and other systems utilising a range of communications cabling systems.

If  your unsure of the route you need we would strongly recommend that you take the City & Guilds 3668 Level 2 qualifcation first. Click HERE for Level 2 details
