Overview

Computer or telecommunication networks rely on transmission infrastructures for the delivery of data between the various devices on the network. Installing and administering these infrastructures requires solid knowledge in certain areas of physics, signal processing, and digital communications. The installation and management of these systems are generally carried out by specialized teams who must report their work to the various stakeholders who will use these systems. The issues encountered in case of problems can be very complex, so it is essential to follow industry rules to avoid malfunctions and to know how to adopt a scientific approach to incident management. A scientific culture is necessary to understand and adapt to the rapid technological changes in the sector.

Use Cases

Example scenarios:

  • Deployment of transmission media and systems
  • Commissioning and administration of fixed or mobile access equipment for a telecommunications operator
  • Deployment and administration of wireless access for businesses
