This report documents the technical training undertaken by me for a period of 3

months in BSNL. The training was divided into two parts the first two months being
based at BSNL OFC-MUX station in Thane and for the last month at Satellite Station
in Yeur.

The training at OFC-MUX station was a study project on OFC backbone. In this
project the objective was to learn about OFC network in place at BSNL. We were
also supposed to familiarize ourselves with the working of various equipments and
monitoring systems like OTDR. During our training at the BSNL OFC-MUX station in
Thane we learned the following in detail:

Synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH): is a method for communicating digital

information using lasers or light-emitting diodes (LEDs) over optical fiber. The
method was developed to replace the Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy (PDH)
system for transporting large amounts of telephone and data traffic and to allow for
interoperability between equipment from different vendors.

Dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM): Dense wavelength division

multiplexing (DWDM) is a technology that puts data from different sources together
on an optical fiber, with each signal carried at the same time on its own separate
light wavelength. Using DWDM, up to 80 (and theoretically more) separate

 TELECOM FACTORY,
RICHHAI, JABALPUR - 482 010

01. INTRODUCTION :-

Under B.S.N.L., there are 7 Telecom Factories at Kolkata, Kharagpur, Gopalpur (24
Parganas - S), Wright Town - Jabalpur, Bhilai, Mumbai and Richhai - Jabalpur. The factory at
Kolkata is as old as Indian Telegraph. During Second World War, as a measure of dispersal of
activities from Kolkata, the Telegraph Workshop was set up at Wright Town, Jabalpur in 1942.
In 1943, Bombay Telephone Company was acquired and named as Bombay Telephone
Workshop. In 1969, the name of these telegraph workshops and Bombay Telephone Workshop
was re-christianed as “Telecom Factories”.

Over the years Telecom Factory, Wright Town, Jabalpur got surrounded by residential
localities and it became heart of city. With a view to minimise the pollution caused by Coke
Fired Galvanising plant at TF Wright Town, it was decided to shift the galvanising activities
from Wright Town to a new location. Similarly, with a view to minimise arduous manual labour
in rivetting of Telephone poles at Wright Town, Jabalpur, it was decided to set up a Modern
Tube Making Plant at the new location. Thus, a new Telecom Factory at Richhai, Jabalpur came
into being.

Intelligent Network

Recognizing the rising expectations and requirements of the customers, BSNL endeavors to
harness the rewards of telecom revolution. Towards this, we have redefined the term
'telecom service' by introducing value added services in the form of intelligent network.
This technology makes possible, time and cost effective services, optimized solutions,
meeting the exact needs of the customers, in additional business for you.

How it works?

Intelligent Network provides a framework to create various services in a centralized place

independent of the switch. In IN, calls generated by a subscribers are routed (Circuit
Switched) to the nearest Service Switching Points, which in turn , consults, the Service
Control Points (SCP) on high speed CCS 7 links to get the necessary information for further
routing of the call. IN Services can be used by subscriber connected to any type of
exchange using existing telephones.
