This short course explains in a jargon-free manner how the current 4th and 5th generation mobile networks have evolved, and how faster speeds have been achieved. Aimed at anyone with an interest in how this interesting technology works. Read more
This is a series of three linked Technical Bite Size courses. Part 1 - A Technical Guide to Optical Fibre Part 2 - Operation Part 3 - Termination and Testing This is Part 1 A Technical Guide to Optical Fibre which will explore: Optical scalability and the future of communications Optical network components Fibre construction Single v multimode Fibre problems in installation Optical Fibre is the 21st century bandwidth saviour of communication networks, with advantages such as small size and huge bandwidth. All high speed broadband will eventually deploy fibre, whilst it is becoming more popular in Local Area Networks to provide the carrying capacity for integrated systems. This Bitesize course will give you an understanding of the principles of operation of optical fibre. Read more
Optical Fibre is the 21st century bandwidth saviour of communication networks. All high-speed broadband will eventually deploy fibre, and it’s also becoming more popular in Local Area Networks in providing the carrying capacity for integrated systems. Understanding this is a vital component in broadening your knowledge of optical fibre installation and operations. Part one of this three-part course is the `Technical Guide to Optical Fibre` in which we explore optical scalability and the future of communications, optical network components, fibre construction, single vs multimode, and fibre problems in installation. In the second part of the trilogy, Optical Fibre explores in more detail the technical aspects of the `Operation of Optical Fibre`, including dispersion and its effect, single and multimode fibre characteristics, optical loss, and how lasers work. In part three we move onto Termination and Testing, exploring Wave Division Multiplexing, Optical Amplifiers and Regenerators, Optical Switching and Optical Fibre Testing. On completion of the three bitesize courses, you will be able to download and print a certificate to demonstrate your learning which is worth 6 CPD (Continuing Professional Development) points.
