CFOT - Certified Fiber Optics Technician Course Description
Effective December 10, 2007, BICSI recognizes this course for
the following BICSI Continuing Education Credits (CECs):
RDDD 21, OSP 21, INST 15, TECH 18, Cert. Trainer 21
This introductory 3-day fiber optics course is designed for anyone interested in fiber optics. It combines theory and hands-on activities
to prepare the student to take the CFOT (Certified Fiber Optics Technician) test that is sanctioned by the FOA (Fiber Optics Association)
and given the final class day. This course also introduces the student to industry standards governing FTTD (Fiber To The Desk), FTTH
(Fiber To The Home), K-12 (Schools), and explains Zone Vs. Distribution Cabling. Students will learn how to identify fiber types,
recognize various connectors used in fiber installation; and install, terminate, splice, and properly test installed fiber cable to existing
standards. This program explores the history and future of fiber optics and fiber optics capabilities, and cost of installation. Anyone
interested in fiber optics networks and fiber optics capabilities should attend this class. Upon successful completion, this program is
accredited for BICSI CECs (Continuing Education Credits): RCDD 21, Installation 12. Course fee includes all books and study materials.
The text we use is, The FOA Reference Guide to Fiber Optics written by Mr. Jim Hayes.
Prerequisites required: Basic Computer Knowledge
CFOS/T - Certified Fiber Optics Network Testing & Maintenance Course Description
Effective December 10, 2007, BICSI recognizes this course
for the following BICSI Continuing Education Credits (CECs):
RCDD 14, OSP 14, INST 14, TECH 14, Cert. Trainer 14
This 2-day (16-hour) FOA sanctioned program is designed to offer advanced training to anyone involved with the testing and
maintenance of fiber optics networks. It is strictly a practical course, but includes more background information than is typical in basic
courses to allow the student to understand what they are testing and how to troubleshoot problems in long-haul and short-haul fiber
optics networks. One of the most important points of the program is to teach current day technology. Too many courses teach obsolete
theory and practice, out of obsolete textbooks! This course will teach differences between applications (telco/CATV/LAN, etc.) so the
student can intelligently work in today's fiber optics cable environment.
Another focal point in the program is to offer a general, easy to understand approach to fiber optics testing standards. We attempt to
explain the variety of testing standards, equipment and technological approaches used in fiber network testing and how to choose
among them. Many courses are criticized because they are too specific or prejudiced to one application, technology or manufacturer.
We explore the overall spectrum of testing and maintenance of fiber optics networks and strive to provide a better comfort level for
our students with regards to testing and maintenance of both single mode and multi mode fiber optics networks. Subject matter
includes a detailed study of ANSI/TIA/EIA-526-14A and -7, OTDR Fundamentals and Uses, OTDR Vs. Insertion Loss Testing, Return Loss
Testing, and Proper Maintenance of High-Performance Fiber Networks. Course fee includes all study materials, consumables, manuals,
and PC-Based OTDR Simulator. Program provides for 75% hands-on activities.
Prerequisites: CFOT Course or any other Formal Fiber Optics Training Course within previous 6 months, or 1 Year Fiber Optics Related
Experience. If the student is not a CFOT registered with the FOA, he/she must pass the Basic CFOT Exam taken prior to registering the
successfully completed Advanced (CFOS/T) certification with the FOA. Cost for the CFOT test is $150.00. If the student is successful in
passing the CFOS/T exam and does not wish to be registered as a Specialist with the FOA, a Certificate of Completion will be issued.
The student MUST be a member of the FOA as a CFOT prior to registering any Advanced Certification sanctioned by the FOA. All Exams
are closed book. For more information contact BDI DataLynk at 512-785-9024
CFOS/S - Certified Fiber Optics Network Splicing Specialist Course Description
Specialist Fiber Optic Training, 2-day Program
Effective December 10, 2007, BICSI recognizes this course for the following BICSI Continuing Education Credits (CECs):
RCDD 14, OSP 14, INST 14, TECH 14, Cert. Trainer 14
This 2-day Splicing Specialist Training includes a complete Power Point presentation explaining the importance of high performance
splicing and further details the points necessary to achieve these splices. The depth of this presentation is much greater than most
textbooks and provides background information about splicing that is very important to the student. An overview of OTDR functions
and trace understanding is also provided during this presentation. 75% hands-on classroom activities will provide training in both
fusion and mechanical splicing of both single and multi mode fiber optic cables. Both inside and outside plant fiber optic cable types
will be utilized during these hands-on sessions along with inside and outside plant enclosures and splice trays. The student will be
responsible for successfully making and testing both single mode and multi mode mechanical and fusion splices. In addition to the
basic splicing activities outlined above, the student will further be required to correctly and efficiently install spliced fibers into splice
trays and trays in enclosures. These enclosures will include both rack and wall mounted splice enclosures, as well as, outside plant
enclosures. The student will further be required to achieve a splice loss of less than 0.15 dB for all splices and demonstrate proficiency
in interpretation of splice loss using OTDR splice traces.
Prerequisites: CFOT Course or any other Formal Fiber Optics Training Course within previous 6 months, or 1 Year Fiber Optics Related
Experience. If the student is not a CFOT registered with the FOA, he/she must pass the Basic CFOT Exam taken prior to registering this
Splicing Specialist (CFOS/S) certification with the FOA. Cost for the CFOT test is $145.00 made payable to BDI DataLynk. If the student
is successful in passing the CFOS/S exam after completion of this course and does not wish to be registered as a Specialist with the
FOA, a Certificate of Completion will be issued. The student MUST be a member of the FOA as a CFOT prior to registering any Specialist
Certifications sanctioned by the FOA. All Exams are closed book. For more information contact BDI DataLynk at 512-785-9024.
