In their drive to offer faster broadband access over telephone lines, operators are turning to VDSL2. PTT’s course DMB “DSL systems” has been updated to cover the impact of VDSL2 on the protocols and equipment in the operator’s network, in particular the extended role of Ethernet VLANs.

This course also discussed other techniques that maximise access speeds including dynamic spectrum management.

PTT’s courses are regularly updated to ensure their relevance as this course update demonstrates. Watch this space for news of more course updates or email info@ptt.co.uk to receive our newsletters.

Following its ground-breaking release of the first online telecoms training course designed specifically for study using a tablet, PTT has now released two more tablet courses.

The courses TCA: “Telephony and data services” and TCC: “Telecoms infrastructure and administration” are designed for those joining the telecoms sector particularly in a managerial role.

These courses along with the existing tablet course TCB: “Wireless communications” are available through the learntelecoms App for iPad or Android tablets.

In our busy lives, finding time to keep up with trends in telecommunications can be problematic. But now PTT has the answer with the launch of the first course in a series designed specifically for study on a tablet. Now you can learn on a train, in a plane – whenever you have a few minutes to spare

The new “Wireless communications” course is available through the learntelecoms App which is available for Apple® iPad® and for Android™.

This tablet course retains the interactive training facilities of PTT’s other online courses:

• Technical words and acronyms have links to an online glossary giving an instant explanation.
• Interactive simulations explain concepts and systems operation.
• Onscreen question sessions at the end of each module test understanding and provide further guidance and instruction. 

This course provides an overview of the capabilities and applications of wireless communications and is particularly suitable for those joining the telecoms sector in a managerial or technical role. Click here for more >>
