Fibre optic communication subsystem test procedures - Part 4-4: Cable plants and links - Polarization mode dispersion measurement for installed links
IEC 61280-4-4:2017(E) provides uniform methods of measuring polarization mode dispersion (PMD) of single-mode installed links. An installed link is the optical path between transmitter and receiver, or a portion of that optical path. These measurements can be used to assess the suitability of a given link for high bit rate applications, or to provide insight on the relationships of various related transmission attributes. This document focuses on the measurement methods and requirements for measuring long lengths of installed cabling that can also include other optical elements, such as splices, connectors, amplifiers, chromatic dispersion compensating modules, dense wavelength division multiplexing or multiplexer (DWDM) components, multiplexers, wavelength selective switches, re-configurable optical add drop multiplexer (ROADMS). This document focuses on the apparatus, procedures, and calculations needed to complete measurements. IEC TR 61282-9 explains the theory behind the test methods. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2006. This second edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: - theory is removed and replaced with a reference to IEC TR 61282-9; - a new method, wavelength scanning OTDR and SOP analysis (WSOSA), is added as Annex G; - a brief description of each method is added to Clause 5; - Methods E and F are converted to informative Annexes E and F; - a new Clause (6) on measurement configurations is added; - a new Clause (7) on measurement considerations is added; - Clause 10 on procedure is expanded; - several of the apparatus diagrams are improved; - several clarifications about what is measured and what is calculated have been made in Annex H.

Procédures d’essai des sous-systèmes de télécommunication fibroniques - Partie 4-4: Installation de câbles et liens - Mesure de la dispersion de mode polarisation pour les liaisons installées
IEC 61280-4-4: 2017 fournit des méthodes uniformes de mesure de la dispersion de mode de polarisation (PMD) de liaisons unimodales installées. Une liaison installée est le chemin optique entre l’émetteur et le récepteur ou une partie de ce chemin optique. Ces mesures peuvent être utilisées afin d’évaluer si une liaison donnée est adaptée à des applications à débit binaire élevé ou pour connaître les relations entre différents attributs connexes d’une transmission. Le présent document se concentre sur les méthodes de mesure et les exigences relatives à la mesure de grandes longueurs d’une installation câblée qui peut également inclure d’autres éléments optiques, tels que des épissures, des connecteurs, des amplificateurs, des modules de compensation de dispersion chromatique, des composants de multiplexage ou multiplexeurs par répartition en longueur d'onde dense (DWDM – dense wavelength division multiplexing or multiplexer), des multiplexeurs, des commutateurs sélectifs en longueur d'onde, ainsi qu’un multiplexeur optique d’insertion-extraction reconfigurable (ROADMS – re-configurable optical add drop multiplexer). Le présent document se concentre sur l’appareillage, les procédures et les calculs nécessaires pour effectuer des mesures. L’IEC TR 61282-9 explique la théorie qui régit les méthodes d’essai. Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition parue en 2006. Cette deuxième édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente: · suppression de la théorie et remplacement par une référence à l’IEC TR 61282-9; · ajout, en tant qu’Annexe G, d’une nouvelle méthode, · à savoir analyse OTDR et SOP par balayage de longueur d'onde (WSOSA); · ajout d’une description succincte de chaque méthode à l’Article 5; · conversion des méthodes E et F en Annexes E et F informatives; · ajout d’un nouvel Article (6) sur les configurations de mesure; · ajout d’un nouvel Article (7) sur les considérations de mesure; · extension de l’Article 10 sur la procédure; · amélioration de plusieurs diagrammes dédiés à l’appareillage; · plusieurs clarifications internes à l’Annexe H portant sur les mesures et les calculs effectués. La présente version bilingue (2020-09) correspond à la version anglaise monolingue publiée en 2017-03.
Postopki preskušanja optičnega komunikacijskega podsistema - 4-4. del: Kabelske oblike in povezave - Meritve polarizacijske razpršitve v vgrajenih povezavah (IEC 61280-4-4:2017)
Ta del standarda IEC 61280 zagotavlja enotne metode za merjenje polarizacijske razpršitve (PMD) enorodovnih vgrajenih povezav. Vgrajena povezava je optična pot med oddajnikom in sprejemnikom ali del te optične poti. Te meritve se lahko uporabijo za ocenjevanje primernosti posamezne povezave za aplikacije z visoko bitno hitrostjo ali za zagotavljanje vpogleda v odnose med različnimi povezanimi prenosnimi atributi. Ta dokument se osredotoča na merilne metode in zahteve za merjenje dolgega položenega kablovja, ki lahko vključuje tudi druge optične elemente, kot so spoji, priključki, ojačevalniki, moduli za kompenzacijo kromatske disperzije, multiplekserji za zgoščenovalovno dolžinsko multipleksiranje (DWDM) oziroma njihove komponente, multiplekserji, valovnodolžinska selektivna stikala, ponovno nastavljivi optični
dodajalno-odstranjevalni multiplekserji (ROADMS).
Ta dokument se osredotoča na naprave, postopke in izračune, potrebne za dokončanje meritev. Standard IEC TR 61282-9 vsebuje teorijo preskusnih metod.
