Technologically speaking, today’s networks are more complex than ever. Thousands of components have to work in harmony, and
deployment specialists are responsible for tuning entire systems for optimal network performance and ensuring that records are up to
date. At the same time, fiber counts are skyrocketing, and dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) is entrenched in long-haul
applications, moving into metro.
