  Who are Courses for?

Tech Optics offers customer training courses to provide assistance, information and training for contractors, installers, engineers and end users on the termination of fibre optic cables and on the selection and application of fibre optic components and equipment. We train many customers who are planning their own in-house termination capability, or want to move on to new types of connectors or termination methods. We run many courses on terminating the Amphenol MFM style connectors that are fitted to military tactical cables and require more than the average commercial connector understanding.

  Course Location

Courses can be held at either Tech Optics facilities in Tonbridge, Kent or on site at your own premises.

Tech Optics will tailor a course to meet your specific needs, from a basic introductory course to a complex or confidential installation or network.

Courses cover a wide variety of topics, from fibre technology, cable design and installation, connector termination, splicing and test methods to review presentations.

Our expertise in fibre optic cable design ensures you will use the correct product for the installation and at the right price!

We provide training for terminating a wide range of connectors, both singlemode and multimode and our instructors provide an emphasis on the practical training of connectorisation. For the singlemode course, you must either have been working with multimode fibres or attended our multimode course.


  One Day Courses    Back to top


For those just starting to use fibre optic technology, or for companies with additional staff training needs, we offer one day courses in Tonbridge, Kent.
These courses are specifically designed to meet the requirements of the installer with a practical insight to the technology and 'hands-on' training for terminating, splicing and testing.

Our advanced singlemode course includes interferometry, understanding the end face geometry of the fibre, how the interferometer works and how it is used as a tool. Machine polishing singlemode fibres is necessary to get the process optimised for maximum fibre performance, high optical return loss, and making the fibre geometry compliant to IEC standards.
