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

Introduction to Telecommunications focuses on the technical and business aspects of a wide variety of technologies, encouraging readers to think about telecommunications systems in ways that will serve them well as the technology continues to evolve. In-depth coverage of current data and voice communications technologies is featured, along with extensive discussion of emerging technologies such as converged data/voice networks and more. Ideal for electronics and industrial technology students, Introduction to Telecommunications uses numerous real-world examples to explain technical concepts and illustrate how they are being applied today. Ample pedagogy - including chapter-opening objectives, key terms lists, review questions and exercises, plus a comprehensive glossary - is also included to guide readers to an understanding of how telecommunications technologies interact with business in today's Information Age.
