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