Fiber Optic Cable Path Restoration for the Telephone Technician

    A practical Seminar on Fiber Optic Technology For Telephone Technicians

    Technicians attending this informative "real life" practical seminar will learn:

• What information and equipment must be in place before trouble occurs
• How to use the test gear in an emergency to locate the problem area
• What power generation, shelter, and lighting is suitable for a restoration
• How to prepare the damaged cable for an emergency restoration, and how to facilitate the permanent repair
• Mechanical splicing that is available, how to buy, store, and use
• What closures work good for restoration
• How to make an emergency restoration kit
• Practical tips designed to cut down-time
• Safety rules
• Creating a response plan

    "A Class Designed Specifically for Independent
Telephone Company Technical Staff"

    The rapid expansion of fiber optics into the world of the independent telephone company has created two new realities- increased reliance on fiber optics for crucial traffic paths, and a shortage of contract installation/splicing teams available.  It makes sense for a telephone company to be able to internally respond to fiber emergencies.  To do this efficiently, technicians need training on the cable, closures, and splicing techniques unique to their fiber optic plant.  This class is designed to increase the technician's confidence and competence, which will result in a successful response to a fiber cut.

    Participants are encouraged to bring any test equipment they may already have to the seminar for a free inspection and comment by the instructor.  This course is strictly non-vendor specific.  We sell nothing but practical knowledge and experience, and will be happy to make suggestions that will create a more efficient tool kit!  Much of the class time is devoted to helping the participants create a "want list" to take home with them.

    All attendees will receive a manual they can keep for reference, and a certificate of training will be awarded at the end of the class.

This class is also available for presentation on-site at your facilities.
