Hands-On
ISDN
 
Course Description
This Hands-On course is designed to provide an in depth practical as well as theoretical understanding of ISDN technology through a combination of lecture and hands- on learning experiences.

Throughout this course the lecture material is brought to life and reinforced through hands-on labs utilizing state of the art ISDN products and protocol analysis test equipment. After completion of this intensive training program the student will have the knowledge and practical hands-on experience necessary to successfully design, implement, troubleshoot and maintain ISDN premise equipment and access links.
Students Will Learn
Target Audience
Anyone requiring an Understanding and Hands-On Experience of ISDN technologies.
