Fiber Characterization Fundamentals

This two-day instructor-led course focuses on the principles behind building and maintaining high-speed optical networks where key parameters such as polarization mode dispersion and chromatic dispersion must be calculated to evaluate system capabilities and potential upgrades to higher bit rates.

Those involved with equipment or systems where fiber characterization is needed to ensure proper operation of 10 Gb/s or higher data rates

Previous experience with fiber optics and some knowledge of OTDR testing

Intermediate to expert

2 days: One day of classroom learning and one day of hands-on skills training
