1 Day / 2 Live Online Sessions (0900-1230)
Description
A detailed technical description of the technologies available to be used to support the backhaul requirements of next generation 4G LTE access networks. This includes discussions of underlying backhaul architecture and concepts along with more detailed discussions of the technologies employed to support evolved Radio Access Networks (RANs), including: Carrier Ethernet, MPLS, fibre-optic transmission and packet-based microwave plus other high capacity backhaul technologies.
Our LTE Backhaul Training Course (Course Code: LT1202) offers a comprehensive overview of the technologies essential for supporting the backhaul requirements of next-generation 4G LTE access networks. This course dives into the underlying backhaul architecture and concepts, as well as the technologies utilized to support evolved Radio Access Networks (RANs), including Carrier Ethernet, MPLS, fiber-optic transmission, packet-based microwave, and other high-capacity backhaul technologies.
Ideal for engineering and technical management professionals involved in the commissioning, design, deployment, or operation of mobile backhaul networks, this course covers a range of topic areas such as backhaul definitions, transport network layered architectures, RAN architectures and requirements, industry forums, and various backhaul options at Layers 1, 2, and 3. Participants will also explore synchronization, redundancy, security options, and Next Generation Mobile Network (NGMN) models, providing a comprehensive understanding of LTE backhaul technologies.
By enrolling in our 1-day LTE Backhaul Training Course, participants will gain valuable insights into the latest technologies and best practices for optimizing backhaul networks in the era of 4G LTE. Whether you are looking to enhance your technical knowledge or stay ahead of industry trends, this course is designed to equip you with the skills and expertise needed to excel in the fast-paced world of mobile backhaul networks.
