Need info getting into fiber


Hello everyone,

 

I recently got back into the IT field.  Working with satellites, light networking and digital signage.  Went to a site for a mdu that was running a fiber node.  Apparently that fiber node is bad.  So now a question came to mind.  How hard is it to get into fiber and learn it?

 

I've seen some different programs.  From a college class to comscope to the fiber optic association self study deal.  My work is mostly in pre existing networks mostly commercial.  I am not understanding all the certifications and what they actually mean.  I get ftth that's fiber to the home.  Is that where you start?  

 

I was talking to one guy local here.  He was telling me he runs the line and pays another guy to put on the fittings.
