Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components - Performance standard - Part 043-02: Simplex patch-cord style single-mode fibre wavelength selective devices with cylindrical ferrule connectors for category C - Controlled environment

IEC 61753-043-02:2022 specifies the test requirements for wavelength selective cords used in a controlled environment (category C) according to IEC 61753-1:2018, where the connectors already comply with the category C requirements of IEC 61753-1:2018. The tests selected are a subset of the connector tests from IEC 61753-1:2018 appropriate for requalification with additional requirements relevant to cords and the connector/cable interface.

Dispositifs d'interconnexion et composants passifs fibroniques - Norme de performance - Partie 043-02: Dispositifs sélectifs en longueur d'onde à fibres unimodales de type cordon simplex de brassage avec des connecteurs à férules cylindriques pour la catégorie C - Environnement contrôlé

IEC 61753-043-02: 2022 spécifie les exigences d’essai pour les cordons sélectifs en longueur d’onde utilisés dans un environnement contrôlé (catégorie C) selon l’IEC 61753­1: 2018, lorsque les connecteurs sont déjà conformes aux exigences de la catégorie C de l’IEC 61753­1: 2018. Les essais choisis constituent un sous-ensemble des essais de connecteurs de l’IEC 61753-1: 2018 appropriés pour la requalification avec des exigences supplémentaires pour les cordons et l’interface connecteur/câble.

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 Committ
