From Fiber and Copper to Wi-Fi: Mastering the Modern Network

Networks are evolving fast. AI is fueling the largest fiber buildout in history, copper is carrying more power and speed than ever, and Wi-Fi performance depends on far more than a green coverage map.

This seminar brings together fiber, copper, and Wi-Fi in one day of practical sessions — sharing the knowledge and tools to test, validate, and troubleshoot with confidence.

We look forward to welcoming you.

AGENDA

08:30

Doors Open & Registration

Welcome & Introduction

09:15 – 10:00

FIBER: AI Hyperscale and Multifiber Testing & Troubleshooting for Dummies
AI is driving the largest fiber infrastructure buildout in history.
As hyperscale data centers grow, thousands of fibers must be deployed, tested, and maintained with near-perfect accuracy. This session explores how modern solutions simplify multifiber testing and troubleshooting in these increasingly complex environments.

10:00 – 10:45

FIBER: OTDR Testing Has Never Been This Easy
Fiber troubleshooting should not require an OTDR expert.
For years, fiber troubleshooting has relied on complex traces, manual interpretation, and specialized knowledge. Today, engineers can focus less on reading traces and more on solving problems.

10:45 – 11:00

☕ Coffee Break

11:00 – 11:45

COPPER: PoE Standards and Troubleshooting
Copper isn’t disappearing. It’s carrying more power than ever.
What was once a simple data cable now delivers both connectivity and power to a growing range of devices. This session explores how modern PoE technologies are reshaping network infrastructure and what it takes to test and troubleshoot them effectively.

11:45 – 12:30

COPPER: High-Speed Copper Testing
The network is only as fast as the cable behind it.
As organizations adopt Multi-Gigabit Ethernet, Wi-Fi 6/6E/7, and higher-speed switching, the demands on copper cabling continue to increase. This session explores how to validate network performance, identify bottlenecks, and verify that the underlying infrastructure is ready for modern speeds.

12:30 – 13:15

🍽️ Lunch Break

13:15 – 14:00

Wi-Fi: Design and Planning – Look Beyond a Green Map
A green coverage map does not guarantee a great Wi-Fi network.
Real-world performance depends on capacity, interference, channel planning, and how devices compete for airtime. Great Wi-Fi design delivers not just coverage, but a reliable user experience when the network is under load.

14:00 – 14:45

Wi-Fi: Validation and Troubleshooting – In the Land of the Blind
You can’t troubleshoot what you can’t see.
Wi-Fi is invisible, which often leads to decisions based on assumptions rather than facts. This session explores how visibility tools transform wireless troubleshooting from guesswork into evidence-based analysis.
