IEC TR 62627-01:2023 is available as IEC TR 62627-01:2023 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.IEC TR 62627-01:2023 which is a Technical Report, details cleaning methods for fibre optic connectors. It includes typical cleaning tools and machines, and cleaning procedures. Other cleaning methods exist. The impact of contamination and the reasons for connector visual inspection and cleaning are described in Annex B. This document does not address the visual inspection procedures, which are covered in IEC 61300-3-35. Optical fibre patch cords are handled by the operators and maintenance staff of optical network systems. This document is useful as a guideline to prepare instruction manuals for those involved in optical system maintenance and operation. This document covers fibre optic connector plugs, optical adaptors, optical receptacles (excluding optical transceivers) and dust caps. Guidelines for fibre optic connector end-face cleaning methods for receptacle style optical transceivers are covered in IEC TR 62572-4. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2016. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
- addition of cleaning tools for adhesive pad type and adhesive pen type in terms and definitions (Clause 3), in information (7.5 and 7.6), in fibre optic connectors and their applicable cleaning tools (Table 1 and Clause 8) and procedures (9.5, 9.6 and 9.7);
- addition of classification of cleaning tools and machines (Figure 1).

IEC 61300-2-1:2023 is available as IEC 61300-2-1:2023 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.IEC 61300-2-1:2023 evaluates the effects of vibration on fibre optic devices at the predominant frequency ranges and magnitudes that are encountered during field service on attenuation. NOTE Most vibrations encountered in service are not of a simple harmonic nature. However, it has been shown that tests based on vibrations of this type are satisfactory to simulating actual service. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2009. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical change with respect to the previous edition: harmonizing with the test conditions in IEC 61753-1:2018 and revising severities.

IEC 61300-2-18:2023 is available as IEC 61300-2-18:2023 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.IEC 61300-2-18:2023 details a procedure to determine the suitability of a fibre optic interconnecting device, passive component, splices or closure to withstand the environmental condition of extended high temperature that occur during operation, storage and/or transport. The test is intended to indicate the performance of such devices when exposed to heat of constant temperature over a given period. In general terms, this test provides a high temperature to induce potential failures due to softening and expansions. This procedure does not assess the ability of a device to operate during temperature variations; in this case, IEC 61300-2-22 is used. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2005. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
- terms and definitions updated according to IEC 61753-1:2018;
- test severities updated according to IEC 61753-1:2018;
- simplification of the combination of temperature and exposure time.

IEC 61300-3-35:2022 is concerned with the observation and classification of debris, scratches and defects. The inspection requirements are based on IEC TR 62627-05. Advice for cleaning of contamination from fibres/ferrule is found in IEC TR 62627-01 and a recommendation is given in Annex D. IEC TR 62572-4 provides the cleaning method for a stub for optical transceivers. Visual inspection is in addition to, and does not replace measurement of performance parameters such as attenuation and return loss, or end face parameters. The dimensions specified are chosen such that they can be easily estimated. Not only the zones A and B on the fibre are inspected for defects and scratches but the whole contact area (where the two fibres/ferrules meet when mated) needs to be inspected for contamination (this is up to 250 µm diameter for cylindrical ferrules and the whole ferrule surface for rectangular ferrules).The objectives of this document are the following:
- specify the minimum criteria for a microscope to be compliant to this document;
- specify the procedure and criteria for inspecting fibre-optic end faces for cleanliness to determine if the end faces are fit for use. All connector optical interfaces (IEC 61755 series and IEC 63267 series) are based on physical contact between fibre cores;
- provide quantitative criteria for the analysis of end face images.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2015. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
- adding of a statement that visual inspection is not a substitute for optical qualification such as attenuation and return loss measurement;
- adding of some terms and definitions;
- adding requirements for SM 35 dB connectors;
- adding of a sentence in Clause 5 concerning the susceptibility of the methods to system variability and variability within systems from same supplier;
- removal of inspection requirements for zones C and D;
- insertion of a generic cleanliness specification for whole rectangular ferrule and 250 µm area around every fibre;
- adding a cleaning recommendation for rectangular and cylindrical ferrules;
- outer edge of inspection zone B has changed from 115 µm to 110 µm to meet manufacturing tolerances of fixture for microscopes;
- change that defects that are partly in core are only to be judged for the part they are in the core. The remainder of the defect is considered to be located in the cladding.
- adding a statement that a connector cannot be rejected by just failing visual inspection. Meeting the specified optical performance determines the use of this connector.
