BICSI Installer 2: Fiber Module
Code - ANS -Addresses the safety of persons, property and the environment associated
with the ITS cabling Installation
NEC - ANS -National electric code
Frequency conversion chart - ANS -One thousand hertz = 1KHz
One million Kilohertz = 1 MHz
One billion Megahertz = 1 GHz
NFPA - ANS -National Fire protection association
AHJ - ANS -Authorities having jurisdiction
TIA/EIA - ANS -- Telecommunications Industry association
- Electronic industries alliance
BICSI - ANS -- Building
- Industry
- Consulting
- Service
- International
Frequency - ANS -Optical pulses using cycles per second, 1 unit of hertz = 1 cycle per
second
4hz = 4 cycles per second
Definition of transmission - ANS -The movement of information in the form of electrical
or optical signals from one point to another through a transport medium
Refraction - ANS -Bending of the light as it passes from one medium into another
MHz - ANS -- Quantifies the bandwidth of a cabling system in a frequency range
- Information handling capabilities of the medium
Megabits - ANS -- transmission rate
- Number of bits information that can be transported over the medium(vehicles of the
highway)
, Anatomy of a fiber - ANS -- Core
- Cladding
- Coating
Attenuation = - ANS -The decrease in magnitude of transmission signal strength
between points, expressed in decibel as the ratio of out put to input signal
Attenuation [insertion loss] = - ANS -Light pulses traveling along fiber are subjected to
loss due to absorption or scattering of the light
Intrinsic = - ANS -Controlled by the manufacture/expresses in decibels per-kilometer
impacts the signal to reach the receiver with sufficient power
Extrinsic = - ANS -Controlled by the installer/expresses in decibels per-kilometer
impacts the signal to reach the receiver with sufficient power
Attenuation loss = - ANS -- Expressed in decibels per kilometers
- Impacts the ability of the signal to reach the receiver with sufficient power
dBm = - ANS -Optical power referred to as 1 milliwatt of power
CWDM = - ANS -Coarse wave division multiplexing
DWDM = - ANS -Dense wave division multiplexing
APC - ANS -Angle polish connector
SCS = - ANS -Structured cabling system
Tight buffered = - ANS -Zipcord
Distribution = - ANS -- Most popular backbone cable
- High fiber density
- Terminated in patch panels and wall mounted box
- Breakout cable
Loose tube = - ANS -Outdoor
Tight buffer breakout = - ANS -Indoor
Zip-Cord = - ANS -Short runs, patch cords, laid in cable trays
OPGW = - ANS -Optical power ground wire
