This one-day course
provides an introduction
to the principles
of Voice Over
IP, and provide
the student with
a effective understanding
of the major issues
that confront
a cable operation,
as it moves to
support telephone
service over the
broadband infrastructure.
The course is
designed to appeal
to anyone involved
in the cable industry
who needs an introduction
to the issues
and technologies
that support VoIP
without necessarily
wanting to dig
deeply into the
subject -- or
as an introduction
to further study.
Each delegate
is provided with
a permanent, comprehensive
workbook that
is much more than
a set of lecture
notes. In addition
to being a workbook
designed to track
with the lecture
portion of the
program, it is
designed with
features that
give it real value
as a permanent
reference book.
