Fiber Optics 1-2-3
Instructor: Tim Locker, CBM
Back by popular demand! We're repeating our best attended training of 2018 to reach even more technicians from across Iowa.
This session will begin with an industry overview, including industry trends and standards and a look at where the fiber market is going. Next, Steve and Tim will discuss fiber splicing best practices. This will include a live demo and hands-on time with fiber splicers.
Other topics will include how to do a mid-sheath, splicing drops, proper installation of a splice closure from beginning to end, fiber troubleshooting, Duraline, and future path-new technology.
If you work with fiber, this is a must-attend session!
