Optical fibre cables - Part 1-23: Generic specification - Basic optical cable test procedures - Cable element test methods

IEC 60794-23:2012(E) applies to optical fibre cables for use with telecommunication equipment and devices employing similar techniques, and to cables having a combination of both optical fibres and electrical conductors and is to define test procedures to be used in establishing uniform requirements for the geometrical, material, mechanical, environmental properties of optical fibre cable elements. This edition of IEC 60794-1-23 cancels and replaces the cable elements tests methods part of the second edition of IEC 60794-1-2 published in 2003. It constitutes a technical revision. Key words: Optical cable test procedures, optical fibre units

Lichtwellenleiterkabel - Teil 1-23: Fachgrundspezifikation - Grundlegende Prüfverfahren für Lichtwellenleiterkabel - Prüfverfahren für Kabelelemente

Câbles à fibres optiques - Partie 1-23: Spécification générique - Procédures fondamentales d’essai des câbles optiques - Méthodes d’essais d’éléments de câbles

Kabli iz optičnih vlaken - 1-23. del: Splošne specifikacije - Osnovni preskusni postopki za optične kable - Preskusne metode za kabelske elemente (IEC 60794-1-23:2012)

Ta del standarda IEC 60794 obravnava optične kable za uporabo s telekomunikacijsko opremo in napravami, ki uporabljajo podobne tehnike, ter kable s kombinacijo optičnih vlaken in električnih vodnikov. Cilj tega dela standarda IEC 60794 je opredeliti preskusne postopke, ki jih je treba uporabiti pri določanju enotnih zahtev za geometrijske, snovne, mehanske in okoljske značilnosti elementov kablov iz optičnih vlaken. V dokumentu lahko izraz »optični kabel« vključuje tudi optične enote, mikrokanale itd. Splošne zahteve in definicije so podane v standardu IEC 60794-1-20, popolna referenčna navodila za vse tipe testnih metod pa so podana v standardu IEC 60794-1-2.
