Introduction:
 
This three day course is intended to focus on various implementation issues to do with rolling out a WiMAX Broadband Wireless Access network.
 
Audience:
 
All technical staff responsible for the successful planning, design or deployment of a WiMAX etwork
 
Prerequisites:
 
Before attending the WiMAX engineer course, delegates should be aware of the 802.16 (WiMAX) broadband wireless access standard and its structure, PHY and MAC operation. Some basic RF knowledge would be useful, as would knowledge of IP.
 
Customize it:
 
This 3-4-day WiMAX System Engineering course will be customized to your needs and specifications. Eno.com will assist you in identifying those needs and specifications. A word to the wise, there are many vendors of Wireless training. They will typically have a broad and general course, one size fits all, already developed and just put your organization?s name on the title slide. This minimizes their effort and time investment. At Eno.com, every course is made to your exact and exacting specifications. We help you ensure what you are getting is what you really need even if at the beginning you weren't too sure of what that was. We fit the class to your needs. We never fit you into our standard, one size fits all, class. Please call or e-mail to schedule a no-obligation conference call to help us understand your audience background and training objectives.
 
Objectives:
 

Learn How To:
