Make Sense of X25 Data Services with New E-Learning Course.


DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c42975) has announced the addition of E-Learning Course: X25 Data Services to their offering

"X25 Data Services" discusses the protocols and techniques used in an X25 data service. Typical X25 service offerings are also described.

Course aim: This course provides an introduction to the principles, operation and features of data services conforming to the ITU (International Telecommunication Union, Geneva, Switzerland, www.itu.ch) A telecommunications standards body that is under the auspices of the United Nations. Comprising more than 185 member countries, the ITU sets standards for global telecom networks.  X25 recommendations.

Pre-requisites: Understanding of the basic principles of packet switching A network technology that breaks up a message into small packets for transmission. Unlike circuit switching, which requires the establishment of a dedicated point-to-point connection, each packet in a packet-switched network contains a destination address. . It is recommended that TransNet course A - Principles of Wide Area Networks - is studied before attempting this course.

"X25 Data Services" forms part of the TransNet series of courses.

TransNet

- is a suite of interactive, multimedia e-learning courses designed to run under Windows[TM] 98, 2000 Professional or XP.

- provides training in the technical aspects of Wide Area Networks and data services.

- consists of eight separate but integrated courses:

A Principles of Wide Area Networks

B X25 data services

C Frame Relay data services

D Principles of ATM

E ATM networks

F IP networks

G Advanced IP networks inc. voice over IP

H DSL DSL
 in full Digital Subscriber Line

Broadband digital communications connection that operates over standard copper telephone wires. It requires a DSL modem, which splits transmissions into two frequency bands: the lower frequencies for voice (ordinary
 services

Each TransNet course:

- provides several hours of in-depth, authoritative technical training

- employs interactive simulations, hypertext links and question sessions to fully involve the trainee in the learning experience.

- provides personalised training with each trainee able to make his/her on notes and place bookmarks. A record of progress and level of achievement is recorded for each trainee.

- provides a structured assessed course and can also be used to browse for revision or reference.

- can be studied in isolation or as an integrated suite; each chapter of a course includes revision links to relevant subjects covered in the other TransNet courses.

Target audience:

TransNet is designed for:

- Those studying for a career in telecommunications and who require a detailed knowledge of modern Wide Area Networks and data services.

- Technical staff involved in the operation, design or maintenance of Wide Area Networks.
