Fiber optic cabling plays a critical role in water and wastewater facilities as one of the most common network communication media interconnecting plants’ networked equipment—PLCs (programmable logic controllers), plant operational equipment, power monitoring relays, fire alarm systems, security systems, and HMI (human-machine interface) monitoring platforms.

This webinar explores the advanced aspects of Fiber Optic Design, Installation and best practices, offering a comprehensive overview of the key principles and practices in this field. Participants will gain insights into the design considerations for efficient and reliable fiber optic networks. The installation segment will investigate best practices for deploying fiber optic infrastructure in a complex environment. Additionally, a case study will be presented to illustrate real-world applications and challenges, providing practical context to the concepts discussed.
