Fundamentals of T1/T3


In this 2-day workshop class demonstrations are designed to solidify concepts presented in class by showing how they are implemented in practice. Accordingly, demonstrations are woven throughout the presentation. The emphasis is on showing the physical form these concepts take in real-world equipment.

The workbook consists of 410 pages divided into ten sections plus Appendix, and it is a compilation of the latest information on T-1 and T-3 carrier systems. It is intended for use not only as a class workbook but as a working reference whose value extends far beyond the class itself. Pertinent Internet Web sites and relevant telephone numbers for more information are listed frequently in the text and in the Appendix. Tutorials on the Four Forms of Timing and Understanding T-3 Signal Formats appear in the Appendix for those who want to go beyond the scope of the workbook. There is also an assortment of T-carrier equipment listed in the Appendix for those interested in purchasing T-carrier or ISDN equipment, including test equipment.

Students are encouraged to bring their own equipment manuals to class in order to see how their documentation and equipment relates to the principles presented in class. Students are welcome to experiment with the class equipment during breaks, lunch or after class.
