Yeah. Telecom experience can help you indirectly to pursue a career in networking filed. It can assist you, but computer networking is a separate domain. Some telecommunication concepts, such as routing and switching, modem, switch, router, TCP/IP, and so on, are shared by both fields.
In telecommunications, we primarily concentrate on modulation techniques, uplink-downlink frequencies, base stations, user equipment, transmitting antennas, switching, power supply, fibre optic maintenance, billing, and so on.
The networking field differs slightly from the telecommunications field. We will primarily focus on computer connections, DHCP, TCP/IP, routing and switching, proper and sequential transmission of data packets from one computer to another, server-to-client computer communication, network security, and so on.
Most important individual networking devices are -- Bridge, Hub, Switch, Router, Modem, Repeater, Gateway, etc.
