Modification History

Release	Comments
Release 1	This version first released with ICT Information and Communications Technology Training Package Version 2.0.

Performance Evidence

Evidence of the ability to:

comply with all job requirements and work health and safety (WHS) regulations, standards and work practices

use optical power test equipment

evaluate test results

safely connect input and output optical fibres to the splitter

conduct live tests measuring optical signals at three wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) wavelengths on optical devices

conduct acceptance tests for commissioning

complete connection recording.

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 the location and summarise the contents of relevant organisational policies and procedures

discuss personal safety issues

outline the propagation of light in optical communication systems

explain the role of transmitters and receivers in optical communication systems

identify the critical aspects of site engineering

describe the specific WHS risks and controls relating to the handling of optical fibre and the use of laser light sources

describe WDM applications.

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 – broadband and wireless networks field of work and include access to:

a WDM system and relevant optical splitter

tools, equipment and personal protective equipment currently used in industry

relevant regulatory and equipment documentation that impacts on work activities.

Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational education and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
