Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024
Installation contractors, technical staff and field officers from telecommunications carriers, other private and public organisations and regulatory authorities apply the skills and knowledge in this unit. They combine technical skills with organisational and administrative skills.
Field officers may be responsible for small projects such as forming routine field measurements on optical fibres in broadband optical networks, RF cables and equipment in broadband cable networks and satellite and terrestrial television systems.
This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to set up and use hand-held optical and radio frequency (RF) communications instruments in order to perform installations, upgrades and fault-finding on optical and RF equipment.
The complexity of the measurements performed is suitable for entry-level practitioners.
No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of endorsement but users should confirm requirements with the relevant federal, state or territory authority.
