COMMUNICATIONS SPECIALIST WITH TRANFERABLE SKILLSET Communications Computer Systems Control Specialist trained to maintain

continuity in all assigned circuits locally or globally. Outages occurring from any user are recorded, investigated, and repaired by the priority level each are given. Troubleshooting involves tracing a circuit’s path from the point where decibel levels meet established parameters to the point where the levels do not meet specifications or cease entirely. Fault isolation is accomplished by gathering information from the user and every Tech Control Facility necessary to pinpoint the equipment at fault or the symptom of fault. A Systems Controller must be familiar with the entire spectrum of the established network and formats of communications to be effective, rapidly, within it.
