On completion of the course, the learners should be able to:

1. Get the overview of network topologies used in the communication industry;
2. Understand the requirements for access network, metropolitan network and long haul and;
3. Understand the routing principles of optical network.
Network fundamentals
Basic types of network principles and network nodes will be discussed.

Synchronous optical networks (SONET/SDH)

SONET/SDH frame structure. Elements of SONET/SDH networks. Singlehop and multi-hop optical networks. The data rate handling capability of  above-mentioned networks will be discussed.

Optical access networks
FTTX. Gigabit Ethernet passive optical networks (EPON). Wavelengthrouted optical networks. Design examples will be discussed including few  case studies.

For aspiring engineers and Information technologists who wish to improve their knowledge and skills in the broad area of communication engineering.
