Course Objectives | Who Should Attend | Prerequisites | Course Content | Course Outline

Course Objectives

The refresher course is intended to revalidate the D-Link Certified Cable Engineers by giving then a better understanding of the latest technological development in Structured Cabling Systems- proper installation and testing procedures. They can then install the new Digi-Link SCS products and certify their installation based on the latest industrial standards. A hands-on practical is used to familiarize the participant with both the product and test equipment.

Who should attend?

The Target Audience for this course is: 

  • Channel Partners

  • System Integrators

  • Network Consultants

  • Enterprise customers

Prerequisites

 

Course Content

The course covers methods used for installation of latest Digi-Link Structured Cabling Systems, a thorough explanation of the new copper and fiber media products. The latest EIA/TIA standards addressing testing configuration and procedures for copper and fiber are covered. Hands on practical exercises accompany with high level testers and sophisticated splicing equipments.
