SONET/SDH: Principles and Design Training Seminar

Optical networks are a key contributor to the rapid expansion of telecommunications services now underway. Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) and Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) have become the worldwide standard for the interface and multiplexing of user information to optical networks. SONET/SDH systems allow much greater network flexibility and management over existing optical systems. The study of SONET/SDH is therefore important for all involved with telecommunication and information technology. In this course, you will learn both the technology and applications of SONET/SDH. We will review the SONET/SDH system components as well as the end-to-end SONET/SDH network design process. We will also discuss the essentials of SONET/SDH synchronization, control, network management, and practical deployment issues. In short, this course will give you the knowledge and skills you need to understand and deploy this important technology.

  Comments  
  - Are you a transmission or network engineer who would like to "fill in the holes" and catch up with the state-of-the-art of optical systems? Let us know so we can focus on the areas that interest you the most. - Are you an optical communications system installer who would like to learn the concepts and theory that underlie your craft? We can focus on the tools and techniques that will help you become more "tech savvy". - Are you a manager, executive, or sales person whose work involves optical communication systems? If so, we can emphasize those parts of the course that deal with the markets and applications pertinent to your project or product.
