FIBER TESTING AND MAINTENANCE
EXAM QUESTIONS WITH 100% COMPLETE
SOLUTIONS| LATEST UPDATE
What can happen inside fiber-optic equipment room facilities? - correct answer-Failures
can typically arise at patch panels, somewhere in opto-electronic systems, and because
of installation practices.
How is a restoration posture for a fiber network acquired? - correct answer-The basic
resources required to respond to a major system outage are documentation, technical
skill, and basic troubleshooting/repair equipment and materials.
What is an important consideration in structuring a flow chart of basic restoration
activities? - correct answer-The restoration plan prescribes the sequence of events
described in the flow chart.
When establishing a timing sequence or communication flow for a restoration flow chart,
- correct answer-As experience in emergency restoration deployment is gained via
actual deployments or rehearsals, the sequence time chart becomes more detailed and
realistic.
Which of the following is an important piece of a restoration planning questionnaire? -
correct answer-A useful question might be, "What is the time allowance for service
restoration from notification of the problem to restored service?"
What is true of a diagram of restoration responsibilities? - correct answer-A lead
technician would likely document troubleshooting results.
What is the best way to plan proficiency training for fiber restoration? - correct answer-It
is often best accomplished by simulating a fiber-optic cable failure.
What is the purpose of the call list with regards to fiber-optic restorations? - correct
answer-To provide quick access to the proper departments and staff required for
restorations.
, What is the safety standard for confined spaces? - correct answer-The ANSI Z117.7
standard covers confined spaces.
What is the first order of business for the fiber-optic field restoration coordinator (FRC)?
- correct answer-To conduct a site visit to verify the extent of the damage.
Fiber-optic restoration - correct answer-Requires preparation for dealing with factors
that affect outage repair, including foul weather, darkness, electric utility failures, and
the need to repair the system quickly.
Which of the following statements about fiber restoration safety is true? - correct
answer-Proper signage should be used to alert passers-by of work in progress, as
required by local and national safety codes.
Regarding variables that can affect a potential fiber-optic restoration scenario, - correct
answer-The three variables that in general terms may be discussed as combinations
are: availability of slack cable; temporary vs. permanent restoration; and aerial vs.
underground restoration.
In a temporary fiber-optic restoration, - correct answer-The restoration kit should be
clearly marked and placed to protect it from damage and from becoming a safety
hazard.
What is an advantage of having slack fiber-optic cable? - correct answer-When
available during a restoration, it decreases down time and repair costs and omits
additional splice attenuation.
Regarding outside plant fiber-optic restorations, - correct answer-If a suitable path
exists, an aerial span replacement may be accomplished by converting to an
underground installation.
For fiber restoration, what can facilitate necessary documentation? - correct answer-
Software packages, which electronically automate system records.
