Fiber
Optic Network Design And Management
Lesson Plan No. 1: What Is Fiber Optic Network
Design And Management?
Objectives: From
this self-study lesson you should learn:
- What
is involved in designing a fiber optic network
- What
you need to know to design a fiber optic network
- How
to break the design process into steps
- What
references are available
At first, one needs to establish the need for
communications and what locations the communications
network connects. Then, to get started on the project, one
needs to understand what is involved in fiber optic
network design. Every fiber optic network design project
can be broken down into a number of steps which will be
reviewed in this lesson. The best place to start is the
FOA YouTube Lecture linked below, then read the beginning
of the sections on design online or in the textbooks.
