FiberBase™ Product Training
This three day course provides participants with the training needed to create and maintain a relational database on a fiber distribution system. The lecture/lab format allows each student to perform such tasks as building both long and short haul Fiber Topology rings, entering physical equipment, and creating custom equipment sets.
Pre-Work
Students are asked to bring a sample of what they use to document their Fiber networks. On the last day of training students will further develop their skills by using a CAD/CAM drawing of a particular room or a design drawing of a portion of their long or short haul routes between network structures.
Course Length: Three Days (Please contact FiberOptic.com for a classroom requirements document before scheduling an on-site FiberBase Software training course.)
Course Format: 40 % lecture, 60 % Lab Work
Target Audience: Individuals entering fiber plant information into a relational database.
- Those participating should have a basic knowledge of fiber and fiber optic networks.
- Participants will also benefit from having a good working knowledge of a graphical Windows environment.
