Release 1

This version first released with ICT Information and Communications Technology Training Package Version 2.0.

Performance Evidence

Evidence of the ability to:

  • read and interpret plans and specifications
  • develop and implement a cutover work plan
  • install customer premises equipment
  • configure and test systems and equipment
  • apply relevant regulations and standards.

Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.

Knowledge Evidence

To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:

  • identify and select cabling types, connectors and cabling structures
  • describe the legislation, codes of practice and other formal agreements that impact on the work activity
  • describe the manufacturer’s requirements for safe operation of equipment
  • explain the equipment requiring cutover at the customer's premises
  • specify the health and safety requirements relating to the activity and site conditions
  • identify and select the test methods and performance requirements
  • describe the features and operating requirements of test equipment for cutover
  • identify typical issues and challenges that occur on the worksite.

Assessment Conditions

Gather evidence to demonstrate consistent performance in conditions that are safe and replicate the workplace. Noise levels, production flow, interruptions and time variances must be typical of those experienced in the telecommunications – cabling field of work and include access to:

  • a site where installation of customer premises equipment may be conducted
