In this intense course, you'll get the skills necessary to deploy a Multiservice Transport Platform (MSTP) network, including fiber-cleaning techniques, fiber test requirements, and node turn-up. You will learn to deploy linear and ring dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) topologies.
In this course, you'll cover multiplexer and demultiplexer cards, amplifier cards, transponder cards, and how they are used in terminal, amplifier, OADM, and ROADM node configurations. Using Cisco TransportPlanner, you will design a DWDM network and use the output to configure the Cisco ONS MSTP Node. In this MSTP basic training course, you will also cover linear and ring topologies and protected and unprotected DWDM circuits.
