Course Description:
A vast majority of Telecommunications companies use T1 (DS1) and T3 (DS3) systems as the primary method of transporting voice and data on their transmission networks therefore, having well trained technicians with the ability to install, maintain and troubleshoot these systems is vital to providing high-quality reliable service to customers in a highly competitive environment.

This Hands-On 2-day course is an intense training experience that combines T1 and T3 operation with troubleshooting. For this course, BTS provides a live working classroom lab with typical equipment currently deployed in the telecommunications industry. Students learn how these systems work then are required to use the knowledge to test, troubleshoot and repair the circuits.

Students Will Learn:

• The Operations and Functions Of T1 And T3 Systems, Including Channel Banks, Muxes, and Crossconnects.
• Use T1 and T3 Test Equipment To Monitor, Troubleshoot and Repair Network Circuits.
• Understand How T1 and T3 Circuits Work On Fiber Optic Systems.
• Describe The Need For Network Synchronization (BITS) Systems.T1 Theory And Operation, Including Channel Banks Special Circuits Such As Analog Data, DDS, Fractional T-1 And ISDN Framing, Line Coding And Signaling And Alarm Signals.
• T1 Circuit Layout From The Network, Through The Central Office, The T1 Span Line,
• To The Customer Premise Including Multiplexers, Channel Banks, DSX-1 Crossconnects, T1 And HDSL Span Lines And, NIU Smart Jacks And Csus At The Customer Premise.
• Hands-On Testing Of T1 Circuits Using Current Test Sets And Standard Test Patterns At DSX-1 Crossconnects And Other Test Access Points.
• T3 Theory And Operation, Including Multiplexers, DSX-3 Crossconnects And SONET Fiber Optic Equipment.
• Hands-On Testing Of T3 Circuits Using Current Test Sets And Standard Test Patterns.
• Network Synchronization Systems Using BITS Clock Equipment In The Central Office And Stratum-1 Timing Reference Sources, Such As GPS.
• T1 And T3 Test Sets Are Covered Extensively To Give The Student Confidence In Using Their Test Equipment To Test And Troubleshoot Circuits.
• And More...
