Objectives

As the follow-up course to Premise Wiring Fundamentals (TR-PWSF,) this course will give students a much deeper understanding of how to assemble, wire, and test various commercial building cabling systems.

This course will allow students to:

• Understand the EIA/TIA standards for advanced copper cabling systems
• Understand the EIA/TIA commercial building cabling standards as they pertain to advanced fiber and copper cabling systems
• Understand advance copper and fiber testing procedures
• Understand distance limitations and performance issues and how to test these measurable properties pertaining to copper and fiber media
• Demonstrate basic skills needed to assemble, wire, and test various commercial building cabling systems including advanced laser optimized fiber optic cabling systems

Summary

The Premise Wiring Systems Installer training is designed for those who design, install or maintain copper and fiber optic dystems in commercial buildings and outer facilities. It identifies you as an installer who demonstrates a practical knowledge of copper and fiber optic theory, codes, standards and practices widely accepted in commercial buildings and customer-owned outside plants (campus environment).

In addition, this training incorporates hands-on training of copper and fiber terminations, cable preparations, installation practices and certification testing procedures. Students will learn skills applicable to all the functions required to safely and competently install advanced copper and fiber communications cabling. All procedures and practices are instructed based on the latest EIA/TIA commercial building cabling standards.

Course Type

This course is currently offered with a self-paced, online lecture and a hands-on workshop. This innovative approach to Fiber Optic Training and certifications allows students to minimize expense, time and travel by learning at their own pace, on their own schedule (using online e-Learning to complete the lecture portion of the class.) Students may then complete the hands-on portions of the class at any of our scheduled sessions around the world (and can review the material within one year of registering for the course). If online training is not ideal for your learning style, a more traditional instructor-lead lecture or question and answer session is available upon request depending upon the location and the size of the class. For more information on our e-Learning program, please check our "Online + Workshop" page. ↑ Top
