| Course Contents |
The Complete CTP Certification kit consists of three a variety of courses that provide the skills and training for the objectives tested in the CTP exam.
Students will set up, maintain and troubleshoot a data network, a telephony network, and a Voice over IP (VoIP) network during the course. The courseware
includes easy-to-follow narrative text, hands-on labs, exercises and case studies.
The kit includes:
- Data Networking coursebook students will learn to identify networking models and topologies, describe the function and purpose of network operating systems, and monitor system performance. Students will learn how various networking components map to the layers of the Open Systems Interconnection reference model (OSI/RM). Students will also learn about the process of packetization; learn to identify key networking protocols; and explore the nature, purpose and operating essentials of protocols that make up the TCP/IP suite. Students will learn about various LAN, WAN and wireless standards, and about wireless vulnerabilities and security. Students will explore the routing process, study Internet addressing, learn to identify address classes, learn about the use of private addresses, and learn to perform subnetting. Students will also learn how to use various TCP/IP diagnostic and troubleshooting tools. (12 hours)
- Telephony Networking coursebook students will learn about basic telephony concepts, including loop-start trunks, common telephony standards, and PBX elements. From Line A and Line B to exchange switches, students will learn how voice and data are routed across the global public switched telephone network.
Students will also learn about key infrastructure issues, including how equipment must be properly tested and secured. This course also focuses on specific troubleshooting techniques. Students will learn how to use common troubleshooting tools, including a digital multimeter, a tone-and-probe kit, a line-test handset (i.e., butt set), and other tools that allow you to wire analogue and digital lines. Finally, students will learn about analogue and digital signaling, including analogue loop-start methods, ISDN and SS7. (6 hours)
- Convergence Technologies coursebook students will learn to identify the characteristics of circuit-based and packet switched technologies, identify differences between the call flow in convergence-based calls and the call flow in circuit-based calls, and identify the types of signaling protocols for converged networks. Students will identify the transport protocols used for real-time communications, and learn about the functions of gatekeepers and gateways. Students will also compare and contrast the three major signaling protocols for VoIP. Students will learn how to determine whether an existing network is capable of supporting convergent services, and they will identify the specific elements required for a successful VoIP implementation.
Students will also learn about common convergence devices, learn about codecs and their bandwidth requirements, and describe the impact of compressing voice in a network. Students will learn about various wireless convergence technologies, identify standards for transporting facsimile across convergent networks, and identify the features of presencing and unified messaging. Students will also identify methods for providing video services through a converged solution. (12 hours)
- CTP Online Practice Exams -(550+ questions, 1-year access)
- CTP Exam Study Guide (eBook)
- CTP e-learning (1-year, 30+ hours of interactive Web-based content that includes prescriptive pre-assessment tools)
