Description
Telecom, Datacom and Networking for Non-Engineers delivers the core knowledge needed in telecommunications today: fundamental concepts and jargon, the PSTN, wireless telecommunications, the OSI model and Layers, Ethernet, IP packets, IP addresses, networks and routers, MPLS, carrier networks and carrier services.
Designed for those without an Engineering degree in telecommunications, our goal is to explain telecom and networks in plain English: the jargon, buzzwords, mainstream technologies and services, standard practices, and most importantly, the underlying ideas… and how it all fits together.
Telecom, Datacom and Networking for Non-Engineers is ideal for self-study and reference, as the companion reference textbook for Teracom online training courses, and as a Study Guide for the TCO Certified Telecommunications Network Specialist (CTNS) telecommunications certification.
This invaluable reference book and study guide contains all of the text and the main graphic from every lesson in all six of Teracom’s online CTNS telecommunications certification courses. The online courses are interactive and rich with photos, images and animated graphics, plus a voiceover. This is the textbook.
