Level 3 Design and Planning External Enterprise Networks

£1,953.60 Inc.VAT | £1,628.00 Ex.VAT

This 5-Day Design and Planning External Enterprise Networks Unit 301, 302 & 309 course aims to provide delegates with an understanding of the industry standards and requirements when designing and planning external fibre networks.  Delegates will have the opportunity to develop knowledge and a practical understanding of the various techniques, skills and documentation that are necessary for planning external fibre networks.

In addition, delegates will develop an understanding of the Health and Safety practices, relevant primary legislation and other codes of practice, which are regarded as the prerequisites for conducting any on-site surveys and assessments.

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 fundamentals 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.
