Training Course Outline
Course Duration:
2 days
Training Course Description:
This course will provide engineers, sales and product management staff
with an introduction to this new technology, how it has evolved and
how it can be used. It will give an understanding of the protocols
used as well as providing examples of the business potential for such
new infrastructures.
The next generation of telecommunications networks will deliver
broadband data and multimedia services to users over a common
Multi-Service Infrastructure. Circuit switched voice services will
replaced with IP packet switched infrastructures that will carry TV,
video multi-media and Voice over IP. Streams of real time media will
be switched between gateways under the control of call servers and
media gateway controllers. The key to this new “soft-switch”
technology will be the protocols that run between the Media Gateway
Controllers and the switched core. The heart of the service will be IP
running over MPLS and Gigabit Ethernet or SDH.
The objectives of the course are to:
- Consider the business potential
for current and future services
- Summarize architecture and
technology options for Multi-Service Networks
- Identify the key technologies for
core, access and infrastructure
- Examine benefits and limitations
of SDH, ATM, IP, VoIP and Media Distribution
- Provide an understanding of likely
future service demands
Prerequisites:
