As the fiber optic "bubble" burst a few years back, work promotions for fiber optic installers have been rare. However, there are genuine jobs still accessible? Assuming if yes, where are they? Is the outside plant market dead? ? What are technologies driving for new establishments?
In my new full-time role as leader of the Fiber Optic Association Inc., the professional society of fiber optics that affirms numerous fiber optic installers, I get myself persistently handling inquiries on the job market. FOA-endorsed schools are graduating lots of new CFOTs (Certified Fiber Optic Technicians) who are joining the job market. Both they and their schools approach us for our perspectives on where the jobs are, so we attempt to investigate the present activity and help them. Here's our present feeling available for fiber optic installation jobs. The present security concerns have likewise helped fiber optics. It is generally used for video observation cameras and alarms. The military and government offices are planning billions of dollars for installing new fiber networks in numerous offices with topographically assorted cable runs to prevent terrorist attacks from disturbing communications. Moves up to joins between offices are likewise in the works. It appears that the market potential for the contractual worker doing premises and grounds fiber optic jobs are truly extraordinary, while the open door in FTTH is a long shot that could pay off enormous.
