A web seminar put on by the Fiber Optics LAN Section of the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) will explain how users can ensure their array-connected multimode fiber systems are capable of transmitting 40- and 100-Gbit/sec traffic. Entitled "Ensuring 40/100G Performance: Multimode Fiber Bandwidth Testing and Array Solutions," the web seminar will be held live at 11:00am EST on Monday, December 20. The information will be presented by Kevin Paschal of CommScope, who also recently presented on the topic of OM4 fiber and 40/100G standards during a web seminar hosted by Cabling Installation & Maintenance.
On the 20th, Paschal will cover:
- Differential mode delay (DMD) testing in the factory
- Assumptions that make DMD testing work and the difficulties of evaluating non-standard fibers
- Array solutions for 40/100G
- System performance
Seminar attendees are eligible to receive one continuing education credit for certain professional designations offered by BICSI.
