Overview

Because this is a book for engineers the practical coverage is reinforced by use of the latest interanational standards, in particular BICSI standards (USA and international) and EU requirements. This will make the book ideal for the large number of industry-based training courses. Coverage has also been matched to the requirements of the revised City & Guilds 3466-04 course.

• Covers the real-world issues of selection, design, installation, testing, safety, legislation... neglected by university texts
• An easy-to-read introduction that assumes no prior knowledge beyond basic concepts of voltage and current - ideal for non-specialists as well as practitioners
• Covers new BICSI (US / international) regulations and EU framework

Audience: Engineers, managers and students in the fields of telecommunications, data communications and networking.

Synopsis

*Covers the real-world issues of selection, design, installation, testing, safety, legislation... neglected by university texts
*An easy-to-read introduction that assumes no prior knowledge beyond basic concepts of voltage and current - ideal for non-specialists as well as practitioners
*Covers new BICSI (US / international) regulations and EU framework

John Crisp has produced a unique, practical guide to the principles, technology, application and installation of copper cable systems. Assuming only a basic grasp of the concepts of voltage and current, this book will appeal to a wide audience: installation engineers, production staff in the telecommunications industry, IT technicians, managers requiring a working knowledge of data cabling, vocational students and first year degree students seeking an insight into the practicalities of copper cable systems.

This book uses the same successful formula as Crisp's highly regarded Introduction to Fiber Optics, which is well established as an introductory text for engineers, managers and students. A lively, readable text is supported throughout by clear illustrations, worked examples where needed, and self-check review questions.

From the Publisher

"Crisp's book is a refreshing change from some texts, which presume the readers remember everything from senior high school and college math and physics cources."
