Unit of Competency | ICTCBL3240A - Install ribbon fibre cable in the FTTX distribution network |
---|---|---|---|
Description | This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to install ribbon cable in the fibre access node (FAN) site and also distribution, local and access underground enclosure joints. Cables range from 12 fibre to 576 fibre cables.For splicing and terminating of optical fibre, the following unit of competency should be completed based on the needs of the work environment: ICTCBL2065A Splice and terminate optical fibre cable for carriers and service providers.For more comprehensive safe work practices on optical installations, particularly on live fibre, the following unit of competency should be completed based on the needs of the work environment: ICTBWN3100B Work safely with live fibre to test and commission a fibre to the x installation.Network owner specifications will apply to this work and should be checked and confirmed before undertaking work on National Broadband Network (NBN) sites. | ||
Employability Skills | This unit contains employability skills. | ||
Learning Outcomes and Application | The unit applies to optical fibre cable installers and splicers deploying broadband access networks using optical technologies.
