Optical Cables - Part 3.70: Family specification for outdoor optical fibre cables for rapid/multiple deployment (IEC 60794-3-70:2016)

This part of IEC 60794 is a family specification that covers outdoor optical fibre cables
intended for rugged terrestrial rapid/multiple deployment. These cables, with enhanced
mechanical, environmental and ingress performance may be used wherever a rapid or
multiple deployment is relevant (e.g. mobile broadcast units, emergency rescue services,
outdoor motion-robotics, etc.).

Lichtwellenleiter - Teil 3-70: Außenkabel - Familienspezifikation für Lichtwellenleiter-Außenkabel für schnelle/mehrfache Verlegung

Câbles à fibres optiques - Partie 3-70: Câbles extérieurs - Spécification de famille pour câbles à fibres optiques extérieurs pour déploiement rapide/multiple

L'IEC 60794-3-70:2016 est partie de une spécification de famille qui couvre les câbles à fibres optiques extérieurs destinés à un déploiement rapide/multiple terrestre renforcé. Ces câbles, dont les performances mécaniques, environnementales et d'infiltration sont améliorées, peuvent être utilisés partout où un déploiement rapide ou multiple est applicable (par exemple dans des unités mobiles de diffusion, des services de secours d'urgence, des robots mobiles extérieurs, etc.).
Cette publication doit être lue conjointement avec la IEC 60794-1-1:2015, IEC 60794-1-2:2013 et IEC 60794-3:2014.

Optični kabli - 3-70. del: Rodovna specifikacija za kable iz optičnih vlaken za zunanjo montažo za hitro/večkratno namestitev (IEC 60794-3-70:2016)

Ta del standarda IEC 60794 je rodovna specifikacija, ki zajema kable iz optičnih vlaken za zunanjo montažo, namenjene za hitro/večkratno namestitev na razgibanem območju. Izboljšane mehanske in okoljske lastnosti ter zaščita proti vdoru omogočajo uporabo teh kablov kjerkoli, kjer je potrebna hitra ali večkratna namestitev (npr. enote za mobilno oddajanje, službe za ukrepanje ob nesrečah, robotsko gibanje na prostem itd.).

OPTICAL FIBRE CABLES –

Part 3-70: Outdoor cables –
Family specification for outdoor optical
fibre cables for rapid/multiple deployment

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.
International Standard IEC 60794-3-70 has been prepared by subcommittee 86A: Fibres and
cables, of IEC technical committee 86: Fibre optics.
This International Standard is to be used in conjunction with IEC 60794-1-1, IEC 60794-1-2
and IEC 60794-3.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
86A/1692/FDIS 86A/1708/RVD

Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.
