Judging from the answers to this question, I gather I didn't phrase 
the question correctly. What I am looking for some is practical 
literature on fiber and copper technology - stuff which network 
operators and designers need and use. I would have guessed there 
would be an equivalent to say what the Stevens Books are to TCP/IP.

Or have most people on this list learnt their skill by experience
only?
