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 provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
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.
International Standard IEC 62005-9-2 has been prepared by subcommittee 86B: Fibre optic
interconnecting devices and passive components, of IEC technical committee 86: Fibre optics.
This standard cancels and replaces IEC/PAS 62005-9-2, published in 2003. This first edition
constitutes a technical revision.

A list of all parts of the IEC 62005 series, published under the general title Reliability of fibre
optic interconnecting devices and passive optical components, can be found on the IEC

The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until
the maintenance result date indicated on the IEC web site under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in

INTRODUCTION
Both performance qualification standards and reliability qualification standards (RQS) define a
set of prescribed conditions and contain a series or a set of tests and measurements (which
may or may not be grouped into a specific schedule) with clearly defined conditions, severities
and pass/fail criteria. The tests are intended to be run on a ‘once-off’ basis to prove the
product’s ability to satisfy the performance or reliability requirements of a specific application,
market sector or user group.
The remaining parts of this series contain those sets of reliability criteria that have been
standardized for international use. A product that has been shown to meet all the
requirements of a reliability standard may be declared as complying with that reliability
standard.
It is recognised that component reliability qualification could be accomplished in alternative
ways. The procedures in this standard are a baseline, but other qualification methods could
prove to be more cost-effective. Alternative methods may be included in future revisions of
this standard if they are demonstrated to be effectively equivalent to the base
