Developed during the last 20 years through field installation and through training more than 6800 installers, this three part, 24 chapter, 314 page guide to fiber optic installation includes all the information, principles and procedures an installer needs to complete any fiber optic installation successfully.

Part 1 - Basics
The nine chapters of Part 1 of Successful Fiber Optic Installation provide the trainee and installer with the basic understanding and the language of the products he installs, so he can identify the products he handles and recognize their limitations. In addition, Part 1 provides the installer and trainee with the performance numbers, so he can recognize those numbers that indicate successful installation.

Part 2, Advanced

The five chapters of Part 2 of Successful Fiber Optic Installation provide both the novice and experienced installer with principles and methods of installation. These principles and methods lead to fiber optic installation procedures that achieve the three goals of installation and of fiber optic training. These principles and methods sensitize the trainee and the installer to the reasons for the procedures they must follow. With this sensitivity, the trainee and installer will follow the installation procedures because they understand how their actions influence their success.

 

Part 3, Installation

The ten chapters of Part 3 of Successful Fiber Optic Installation provide the installer with detailed procedures for installation of cables, connectors, and splices, in any fiber optic link or network. These clearly written, cookbook-like procedures enable the novice to successfully perform all the activities of the fiber optic installation. In addition, these procedures include cautions and troubleshooting sections. The cautions help the installer avoid common errors. The troubleshooting sections assist the installer in identifying errors and their causes. A final benefit of this section; it serves as a valuable refresher for installers who have large breaks between fiber installation activities.

Information Aimed At FOA Certifications

Part 1 contains most of the information required to pass the Certified Fiber Optic Technician [CFOT] examination of the Fiber Optic Association [FOA]. In addition, Part 2 contains additional information required to pass both the Certified Fiber Optic Technician [CFOT] examination and the three FOA advanced certification examinations.
