Optical fibre cables - Part 6-10: Indoor-outdoor cables - Family specification for universal indoor-outdoor cables

IEC 60794-6-10:2020 is a family specification covering features of optical fibre cables applicable to outdoor as well as indoor environments, called "universal indoor-outdoor cables". These cables generally possess the characteristics associated with outdoor cable designs (according to IEC 60794-3, however typically less stringent, and typically "non armoured") having the thermal and mechanical robustness that makes them suitable for use in the outside plant, while simultaneously being flexible enough, compact and lightweight and exhibiting the fire performance required in indoor premises. A typical application is for example the centralized cabling in central office and the premises or local area network where the same cable design is used for the entire length of the cabling link including both the indoor as well as the outdoor portions.

Câbles à fibres optiques - Partie 6-10 : Câbles intérieurs/extérieurs - Spécification de famille pour les câbles intérieurs/extérieurs universels

IEC 60794-6-10:2020 est une spécification de famille qui couvre les fonctionnalités des câbles à fibres optiques destinés aussi bien aux environnements extérieurs qu'aux environnements intérieurs, ci-après désignés "câbles intérieurs/extérieurs universels". Ces câbles possèdent généralement les caractéristiques associées à des conceptions de câbles extérieurs (conformément à l'IEC 60794-3, appliquée cependant habituellement de manière moins rigoureuse, et en général "non armés"), présentant la robustesse thermique et mécanique qui les rend appropriés pour une utilisation dans les environnements d'usine extérieurs, tout en restant suffisamment souples, compacts et légers, et en présentant le comportement au feu exigé à l'intérieur des locaux. Une application type est par exemple la réalisation d'un câblage centralisé dans le bureau central et les locaux ou le réseau local exploitant la même conception de câble sur toute la longueur des liaisons de câblage, englobant les portions en intérieur ainsi que les portions en extérieur.

Overview

EN IEC 60794-6-10:2020 - Optical fibre cables - Part 6-10: Indoor-outdoor cables - Family specification for universal indoor-outdoor cables - is a family specification that defines the features, construction guidance and test requirements for universal indoor‑outdoor optical fibre cables. These cables combine the thermal and mechanical robustness of outdoor designs with the compactness, flexibility and required fire performance for indoor premises. Typical use cases include centralized cabling from central offices into buildings and continuous links that span outdoor and indoor portions of a LAN or premises cabling link.

Key topics and technical requirements

The standard addresses both general specifications and detailed test regimes for universal indoor‑outdoor cable designs. Key technical topics include:

• Scope and construction: family specification covering cable elements, optical fibres and typical indoor‑outdoor constructions (stranded, central tube, mini‑breakout, breakout).
• Applicable tests: a defined matrix of mechanical, environmental and element tests required for universal indoor‑outdoor cables.
• Mechanical tests:
  • Tensile performance
  • Abrasion
  • Crush and impact
  • Repeated bending, torsion and kink
  • Bending under tension
  • Rip cord functional test
• Environmental tests:
  • Temperature cycling and aging
  • Water penetration
  • UV resistance and environmental stress cracking
  • External freezing and compound flow/bleeding
• Cable element tests: ribbon strippability, ribbon tear/separability, ribbon geometry and torsion, tube kinking, stripping force stability.
• Other requirements:
  • Fire performance tests (referenced to IEC/EN series such as IEC 60332, IEC 60754, IEC 61034)
  • Electrical continuity of metallic elements, sheath thickness and overall dimensions
• Normative references: aligns with other IEC standards (for example IEC 60794‑3 for outdoor cables, IEC 60794‑1 series for generic test methods, and material test standards).

Applications and users

Who benefits from this standard:

• Cable manufacturers designing universal indoor‑outdoor, non‑armoured cable constructions.
• Test laboratories performing mechanical, environmental and fire tests on optical cables.
• Network planners, specifiers and installers deploying continuous indoor‑outdoor cabling for central offices, premises and LANs.
• Procurement and compliance teams ensuring products meet combined indoor fire-safety and outdoor robustness requirements.

Practical applications include continuous fiber links between outside plant and indoor distribution, building entry cables, and backbone cabling where a single cable design serves both environments.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and
in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as "IEC Publication(s)"). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

Family specification for universal indoor-outdoor cables

1 Scope
This part of IEC 60794 is a family specification covering features of optical fibre cables
applicable to outdoor as well as indoor environments, called "universal indoor-outdoor cables".
These cables generally possess the characteristics associated with outdoor cable designs
(according to IEC 60794-3, however typically less stringent, and typically "non armoured")
having the thermal and mechanical robustness that makes them suitable for use in the outside
plant, while simultaneously being flexible enough, compact and lightweight and exhibiting the
fire performance required in indoor premises. A typical application is for example the centralized
cabling in central office and the premises or local area network where the same cable design
is used for the entire length of the cabling link including both the indoor as well as the outdoor
portions.
