CITY AND GUILDS LEVEL 3 COURSE BUNDLES – 3668 – 03, Unit 301, 302 & 305 Level 3 Passive Optical Networks (PON)

£1070

CITY AND GUILDS LEVEL 3 COURSE BUNDLES – 3668 – 03, Unit 301, 302 & 305 Level 3 Passive Optical Networks (PON)

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

This is a 5 Day Level 3 Core Modules & Passive Optical Networks (PON) Units 301, 302 & 305 course

The aim of the Passive Optical Networks (PON) Unit 305 is to give delegates the opportunity to carry out the evaluation needed for the deployment of passive optical network technologies and become conversant with terminologies as used in passive optical network systems.

Delegates can use this unit to develop and enhance their underpinning knowledge and understanding that is driving the global deployment of fibre to the home/office between the central office/telephone exchange/head-end and its subscribers using passive optical networks.

Delegates will also be given the opportunity to explore and describe the passive components employed in PON network implementation. There is a practical element to this unit which will cover the key elements of the correct installation practices and the testing of the external cabling to the customer premises.

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.

Our training centre is located in Harlow in the South East of England just off the M25.  We can also deliver courses at your location by arrangement if you have a suitable workspace.
