Résumé
Network manager's practical introduction to optical
networkingWith cheaper bandwidth and greater robustness,
optical networking components are looking increasingly
tempting—perhaps even mandatory for maintaining your
network's competitiveness. In Deploying Optical Networking
Components, veteran communications consultant Gil Held
utilizes language and terms already familiar to network
managers — without overwhelming you with optical
science — to help you:
Optical technologies' advantages over copper have caught your attention. Now you're one of the many network professionals—enterprise and service provider alike—looking to answer that key question,"What's the impact on my network?" Optical Networking Components provides the help you need as you rethink system changes and update plans. Written specifically for network managers and administrators by a veteran communications consultant, Gil Held's Optical Networking Components helps you:
- Understand the role of LEDs, lasers, single mode and multimode optical fiber and couplers and amplifiers
- Bridge the divide between conventional systems and optical upgrades
- Relate optical technologies to existing networks
- Evaluate optical components in the context of your existing infrastructure
- Apply practical integration and migration techniques in LANs, WANs, and other infrastructure
- Familiarize yourself with technical changes in performance measurement, system management, switching technology, support requirements, and other key challenges
