Due to the ever-changing and Technical advancement in the Telecommunications industry, Baseband telecommunications has partnered up with FOA to certify and give in-depth Hands-On training to its fiber Optic technicians. Having a dedicated in House training facility with our own certified instructors allows Baseband to be ahead of the curve when it comes to providing the individual needs of its clients. The technicians will be trained in light Theory, cable classifications, cable installation, closure installation, Fusion splicing, troubleshooting and testing procedures.

- Light Theory: Understanding the propagation mechanics of light and it's tolerances to bend radius is extremely important for a technician to become more efficient and an expert in their field.

- Cable installation: Basebands training will include all of the EIA-TIA 568 standards and fire code installation regulations. Proper installation of the cables is important for safety and system performance

- Fusion splicing: Baseband utilizes several different models of fusion splicers in order to familiarize the technician with different applications and equipment. The instruction of fusion splicing focuses mainly on fiber preparation and analyzation of the splice post splice. This is extremely important to ensure the light guide path has the least amount of attenuation as possible.

- Testing: baseband will train its technicians to deliver a multiple wave graphical representation report to ensure the ability of the end client to have a "thumbprint" type test result for their documentation. We also providing power insertion loss readings at multiple wavelength and bi-directional to deliver a test document package that shows the actual performance levels of each strand of fiber delivered to the client.

- Cable Classification: Understanding the cables classification is an essential part of being a telecommunications technician. It not only allows the technician to place the cables in their proper environment but also to support the bandwidth ie. data that particular cable will perform at. In today's rapidly growing demand for bandwidth it is crucial the technician understands the network they are installing to provide the end-user with a network that meets or exceeds their Network specifications.

- Closure Installation: Baseband trains their technicians in the installation and applications of several different manufacturers of fiber optic enclosures. This is important for the longevity of the splice life and system performance. Proper routing and storage of the fiber optic strands is crucial in system performance and is one of the major focuses of this module of training.

- Troubleshooting: Baseband instructs its technicians in troubleshooting by utilizing VFL, continuity and OTDR testing for attenuation of events and distance. Baseband employs a real life scenario training Style. This allows the technician to troubleshoot identify and repair actual damaged fiber strands at splice points and high attenuation events. The OTDR training is focused on creating proficiency in identifying poor insertion and high loss events to ensure the highest level and least amount of Loss of installed fiber optic lines to ensure quality deliverable to the client.
