Broadband Fiber Optic Technician
Level 1
This foundational level instructor-led course is comprised of a two-day introduction to broadband FTTH theory and fiber followed by two days of hands-on skills training to apply that theory to practical tasks. Areas of focus are FTTH and PON methodologies, topologies, optical distribution networks, cable management and installation practices, testing and maintenance, optical cable types, connectorization, splicing methods, and safety best practices.
Audience: This comprehensive learning track is aimed at FTTH field technicians, installers, designers, and engineers, including those who are new to fiber or broadband FTTH. The course material was adapted from Light Brigade's flagship Fiber Optics 1-2-3 course, and specifically focused to the unique training needs of FTTH and broadband personnel.
Prerequisite: Completing the prerequisite Fiber Foundations online short course will prepare learners to enter this class with a basic understanding of fiber optic principles.
