Unit of Competency | ICTOPN5123A - Analyse and integrate specialised optical devices in the network |
---|---|---|---|
Description | This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to analyse and integrate specialised optical devices into existing optical networks to support the higher bandwidths associated with Next Generation Networks (NGN).Carriers and service providers regularly upgrade existing infrastructures and extend the length of their networks' optical links due to expansion of NGN services such as voice, data and video.Performance testing of specialised optical devices is covered in a separate unit ICTOPN5122A Test the performance of specialised optical devices.No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of endorsement but users should confirm requirements with the relevant federal, state or territory authority. | ||
Employability Skills | This unit contains employability skills. | ||
Learning Outcomes and Application | Technical staff from telecommunications carriers, service providers or other private and public organisations who have experience in optical transmission apply the skills and knowledge in this unit. They combine technical expertise with a range of analytical, research and planning skills to develop integration solutions for particular business needs.Relevant job roles include design and planning of networks using emerging technology. | ||
Duration and Setting | X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting. |
