Fiber Optics (Volume 5) - Equipment

Course No. IC-4002

Credit: 4 PDH

Course Fee: $115.80 Purchase course

Subject Matter Expert: Lee Layton, P.E.

Overview

This 4-hour course is the fifth and final in a series of five courses about fiber optic cable systems. The series covers fiber optics from basic light theory transmission to cables, connectors, testing, and signal transmission.

The course, Fiber Optics V - Equipment, explains the principal properties of an optical source and fiber optic transmitters, the optical emission properties of semiconductor light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and laser diodes (LDs), and explains the operational differences between surface-emitting LEDs (SLEDs), edge-emitting LEDs (ELEDs), super luminescent diodes (SLDs), and laser diodes. Optical receivers and various fiber optic network topologies are also covered.

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of twenty-five (25) questions at the end of this course to obtain PDH credits.
