Course Description
This unit covers selecting and arranging of wireless access
devices, routers and switches for local area and wide area
networks intended for connection to a telecommunications
network. The unit encompasses selecting compliant
equipment, developing LAN/WAN arrangements that comply
with regulation, based on calculated and deemed-to-comply
solutions and completing network documentation.

Learning Outcomes
Details of Learning Activities
• Classroom tutorial activities to consolidate the theory and application of various types of wireless networks, and advanced testing and measuring devices and techniques of wireless networks.
• Practical activities to develop skill in construction the working model of various types of wireless networks. Analyse the performance as specification.
Work performance simulation projects involving the analysing of selected systems, development of testing procedure to verify the performance specification in the systems. Specifications will be provided with work simulation (team or individual basis) or may be negotiated to suit a workplace based application

Overview of Assessment
This is a progressive assessment, the students are required to undertake summative assessments as follows:
• Written assignment related to selecting and arranging equipment for
wireless networks
• Practical demonstration in simulated workplace
Assessment Tasks
• Assignment and work performance simulations projects 90%
• Laboratory work 10 %
• A Pass in the Learning Unit when evidence of learning is collected according to the requirements as stated at “assessment criteria”. The documentation must be clearly communicated and submitted to supervisor within specified time.
The assessment is in conjunction with the course of ’Sensors & transducers’.
