This is a text for training in and field installation of fiber
optic systems. It presents procedures for successful installation,
inspection, and testing of cables, connectors, and splices. The
principles and procedures are applicable to all data, telephone,
CATV, CCTV, and process control systems. This text is an investment
that pays back many times its price Six words define the benefits
of this text: Essentials, Principles, Methods, Procedures, Success,
and Certification. Chapters 1-9 present the essential information
the installer needs to be successful. This information includes the
concepts, language and numbers with which the installer works. With
this information, the installer understands the procedures,
recognizes the significance of his actions, and avoids both errors
and increased cost. Chapters 10-13 present the principles on which
the installation procedures are based. With an understanding of
these principles, the installer follows the procedures easily and
is confident that the procedures lead to success. In addition,
knowledge of the principles makes learning to work with new
products fast and easy Chapters 14-20 present the principles and
methods for OLTS, ORL, OTDR and dispersion testing; and VFL and
microscopic inspection. With these principles and methods, the
installer has the ability to verify successful installation.
Chapters 21-26 present the procedures that successful professional
installers follow. These procedures are ideal for field work,
training, and refreshing the installer's memory. This author
developed and refined these procedures from field work and from
training more than 8400 people during the last 21 years. When
followed, these procedures result in low loss, low cost, short
installation time, and high reliability. Installation organizations
may be able to use these written procedures for ISO certification.
The detailed and extensively illustrated installation procedures
are presented in a clear, concise, step-by-step, cook-book like,
manner. Each procedure includes a troubleshooting section to assist
the installer in solving problems. Finally, each procedure has a
one page summary to guide the installer through the entire
installation process. Installer certification results in increased
fiber network reliability and, in some cases, increased income for
the certified installer. The information in this text enables
passing the Fiber Optic Association (FOA) certification
examinations for: CFOT, CFxT, AFOT, CFOS/C, CFOS/T, and CFOS/S. In
addition, the information in this text enables passing the
certified fiber optic instructor examination (CFOS/I) This text
