Light Brigade offers Light Bites fiber-optic training online

The Light Brigade now offers online training modules. The Light Bites Online Training Series covers both introductory and advanced topics in optical communications.

Each Light Bites module in the series is designed to be completed in 60 to 90 minutes. They feature images, animations, charts, and reference material help reinforce important concepts.

The inaugural module is "Single-mode Technology: Theory and Fibers." The fiber-optic training module goes beyond the fundamentals to provide a deeper understanding of how optical theory applies to single-mode fibers and applications. Key topics include attenuation, dispersion, wavelength, windows and bands, and industry standards. The module also examines related applications and technologies, and details how different types of single-mode fibers are designed to address specific requirements.

The module concludes with a quiz. Students who pass the quiz will receive a Light Brigade certificate of completion.

"Along with our Certified Fiber to the Home Professional course, this first module is just the beginning of our online learning plans," said Lee Kellett, General Manager of Light Brigade. "We understand that education needs to come in many different forms today. Light Bites will be an easy way for anyone to get quality fiber-optic education where and when they need it."

"Single-mode Technology: Theory and Fibers" may be purchased on the Light Brigade website at a limited-time introductory price.
