This 5 Day Intense Design and Planning Internal Enterprise Networks Unit 301, 302, 309 & 310 aims to provide delegates with a thorough understanding of the industry standards, requirements and other considerations, when designing and planning internal and external enterprise networks.

Delegates will develop further knowledge and have a greater practical understanding of the various techniques, skills and documentation that are necessary for planning local area networks and enterprise networks. In addition, delegates will enhance and develop a significant understanding of the Health and Safety legislations, codes of practice and relevant standards, which are fundamental for conducting all on-site surveys and risk assessments as part of the design and planning process.

As part of planning processes, delegates will gain a significant understanding of the correct procedures, when designing a network using other licensed operators’ infrastructure including distribution network operator (DNO) overhead networks and Physical Infrastructure Access (PIA). Delegates will consider in depth, dedicated “stand alone” network designs, including local planning considerations etc, alongside and cost control/project management.

CORE MODULES:

Unit 301: The aim of this unit is to enable delegates to gain an understanding of the safety, to develop and increase the knowledge required for safety, including 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 telecoms transmission technologies.
