The main rings of the new ring structure.
Fiber optic ring network design.
Basically a dwdm ring network includes a fiber in a ring configuration that fully interconnects nodes.
It is intended for those interested in the process and or studying for the foa cfos d fiber optic network design specialist certification either as a contractor.
We have tried to accommodate this with the new topology.
This ring dwdm topology is commonly adopted in a local or a metropolitan area which can span a few tens of kilometers.
The first image below shows how the 2 fibers exist currently.
Ph1 is pretty much an exact duplicate.
Two fiber rings are even presented in some systems for network protection.
As the world gears up for 5g fiber optic cable technology will only become more important for enabling high speed long distance broadband all over the world.
Not everyone will design a fiber optic network but understanding the process will make installing testing and documenting a network easier.
A long time ago we knew that we wanted more local routing and more redundancy if possible.
You might see the new network as a series of rings.
The optosunet topology was a star in which all data had to be routed through stockholm.
However network operators can t simply bury fiber in the ground and expect to serve customers well.
This self study program is designed to introduce the designer or manager to the process of fiber optic network design and the implementation of that design in a real world project.
