3. Testing and Verification
– Conducting accurate and comprehensive testing of the fiber optic network
– Using OTDRs to measure the loss and reflectance of the connections
– Ensuring the network meets industry standards and performance requirements
4. Connection to ISP
– Coordinating with the ISP to establish the connection
– Configuring the optical transceivers or modems to communicate with the ISP’s network
– Verifying the connection and troubleshooting any issues, if necessary
V. Maintenance and Troubleshooting
– Regular inspection and cleaning of the fiber optic cables and connectors
– Monitoring network performance and addressing any degradation or failure promptly
– Collaborating with ISPs for ongoing support and troubleshooting
VI. Conclusión
– Recap of the benefits and advantages of fiber optic networks
– Emphasis on the importance of proper installation and maintenance for optimal performance
– Encouragement to embrace fiber optic technology for faster and more reliable connectivity.
