New Learning Environment for Corning Network IQ

In the next academic year the Corning Network IQ Learning Programme will be in the same learning environment as Cisco Networking Academy.

The following chapters have been revised:

Fibre Basics
Fibre Cables
Fibre Termination
Hardware
Standards
Measurement & troubleshooting

In October 2017 we plan to organise a workshop for interested instructors

CiscoLive, Corning HQ & IoE Hackathon Berlin | FEB 2016

 

Around 25 participants from the Benelux attended CiscoLive and the IoE Hackathon in Berlin. During a visit to the EMEA headquarters of CORNING we learned the practicalities of the Corning Network IQ Elite Programme for educational institutions.

Sluit je aan bij het glasvezelprogramma

Corning Network IQ

Wil je lesprogramma's op het gebied van glasvezel gaan gebruiken, meld je dan aan voor het glasvezelprogramma van BiASC en NASC. Dat programma biedt jou als docent een opleiding om met de lesprogramma's van Corning te gaan werken. Daarbij kun je gebruik maken van flinke kortingen op het gebruik van die programma's. Het wereldwijd opererende bedrijf Corning is een van de toonaangevende leiders op het gebied van glasvezel.

Door de samenwerking van BiASC, NASC, Corning en SixFourteen zijn de lesprogramma's van Corning beschikbaar zijn voor onderwijsinstellingen in de Benelux. De eerste training staat gepland op 8 en 15 februari in Beverwijk (nl)!

BiASC en NASC hebben door het partnerschap het unieke recht voor de Benelux om Corning-programma's te promoten en aan te bieden. Als docent volg je twee trainingen en kun je aan de slag met een uitstekend lesprogramma voor je leerlingen of studenten. Daarna kun je gespecialiseerde praktijktrainingen volgen voor verdere verdieping.

Spare SFP-10G-LR Modules

After finishing a fiber optic project, a Cisco Academy has some spare single-mode SFP-10G-LR Modules for Cisco switches on offer for the decent price of 250 euro (ex VAT). It is possible to receive an invoice if you wish to buy the product.

 

The Cisco 10GBASE-LR Module supports a link length of 10 kilometers on standard single-mode fiber (SMF, G.652).

Understanding How Optical Fiber Type Affects Speed and Distance

In this video you are given the basics of how Optical Fiber Type affects speed and distance, starting with Multimode 62.5/125 µm (AKA: OM1) and Multimode 50/125 µm core size comes in three different classifications (OM2, OM3 and OM4). Singlemode Fiber is also discussed. These optical fiber types have great differences in their speed and distance.

Designation	Core/Cladding Diameter (µm)	Type	Gigabit Ethernet Distance (meters)	10 Gigabit Ethernet Distance (meters)
OM1*	62.5/125	Multimode	300 Meters at 850 nm 600 Meters at 1310 nm	33 Meters at 850 nm 300 Meters at 1310 nm
OM2*	50/125	Multimode	600 Meters at 850 nm 600 Meters at 1310 nm	82 Meters at 850 nm 300 Meters at 1310 nm
OM3	50/125	Multimode	1000 Meters at 850 nm 600 Meters at 1310 nm	300 Meters at 850 nm 300 Meters at 1310 nm
OM4	50/125	Multimode	1040 Meters at 850 nm 600 Meters at 1310 nm	550 Meters at 850 nm 300 Meters at 1310 nm
ITU-T G.652.D	9/125	Singlemode	5 km at 1310 nm 5 km at 1310 nm	10 km at 1310 nm 10 km at 1550 nm

What is Fibre Optic Cable - Hands-on Videos

What's is the difference between indoor/ outdoor, loose tube/ tight buffered fibre optic cable?

Choosing the best fibre optic cable for your network design is a difficult task. Here are some hands-on presentations of different types of fibre optic cable:

• Part 1: Loose Tube Indoor/Outdoor
• Part 2: Armored Outdoor Loose Tube
• Part 3: Interlocking Armored Tight Buffered
• Part 4: Indoor Outdoor Rated Tight Buffered
• Part 5: Zip Cord
• Part 6: Circular Premise

Zip cord cables are available to provide links to the future for such protocols as FDDI, 10 Gigabit Ethernet, ATM, and Fiber Channel. Connections are easy to terminate with this flexible, two-fiber design. Duplex cordage available in Plenum, Riser and LSZH in all diameters. One design for global companies that don't want to maintain multiple cable types for varying global standards. Compliant with Directive 2002/95/EC (RoHS).
