The telecom sector has a huge demand for the trained and qualified
engineers specializing in Optical Fibre Communication. Telecom
companies use fibre to connect all their central offices and long
distance switches because it has thousands of times the bandwidth of
copper wire and can carry signals hundreds of times further before
needing a repeater. The CATV companies use Fibre because it give them
greater reliability and the opportunity to offer new services, like phone
service and Internet connections. Both Telecom Companies and CATV
operators use fibre for economic reasons, but their cost justification
requires adopting new network architectures to take advantage of fibre's
strengths. A properly designed premises cabling network can also be less
expensive when done in fibre instead of copper. There are several good
examples of fibre being less expensive.
Currently there is considerable worldwide plan regarding the
introduction of Optical fiber cable into Access networks, in addition to
the existing large chunk of core network-because optical fiber has a big
potential for providing attractive multimedia services. Since optical fiber
cable can provide a variety of grade of services, high-reliability of cable
networks would be required compared with the conventional copper cable
networks. To develop multimedia telecommunication networks as an
infrastructure, it is urgent to install the highly reliable optical fiber cable
network architecture along with traditional and next generation SDH
systems.
In addition FTTH (Fibre to the Home) is planned in all cities/towns
across India to provide more bandwidth to the customers, which is the
need of the present day for providing more new services. After the
introduction of IPV6, the requirement of high bit rate will become
absolutely essential for meeting the customers’ day to day needs.
The thrust of this training is on OFC/SDH technology and it will
create awareness to the service provider network architecture, principles
of OFC, different SDH systems namely STM-1/4/16 of different vendors
namely ITI/FIBCOM and TEJAS.
In order to fill up this growing demand of qualified professionals,
BSNL, a fully owned Government of India Company, is launching a
certification training program in Optical Fibre Communication
Engineering on December 6th 2010 at Regional Telecom Training Centre,
Gachibowli, Hyderabad-32, India.
