Course Description
In
this program we will discuss the underlying problems with POTS
connectivity at all levels of communication, how cellular communications
have impacted the industry, and explain the technology developed for
it. To further the understanding of how NFPA 72 applies to alternative
communication paths, such as cellular, we will refer to specific codes
