- 3 - EN 187104:2001ForewordThis standard has been produced in accordance with a specialised agreement on work repartition and co-operation for standardisation concerning fibre optics and is part of the CEN/CENELEC/ETSI (EuropeanTelecommunications Standards Institute) co-operation agreement.It uses information provided by the ETSI on functional and system related aspects by means of anInterim European Telecommunication Standard (I-ETS).The document I-ETS 300 634 : Single-mode optical fibre cables to be used as underwater cables forlakes and river crossings etc., prepared by ETSI/TM1/WG1, has been reviewed and completed by theCENELEC TC 86A for incorporation within the set of EN 1871xx. Standards prepared using a similarprocess.This European Standard, prepared by the Technical Committee CENELEC TC 86A, Optical fibres andoptical fibre cables, was submitted to the Unique Acceptance Procedure and was approved byCENELEC as EN 187104 on 2000-11-01.The following dates were fixed:-latest date by which the EN has to be implementedat national level by publication of an identicalnational standard or by endorsement(dop)2002-03-01-latest date by which the national standards conflictingwith the EN have to be withdrawn(dow)2003-11-01



EN 187104:2001- 4 -1 Scope This family specification covers optical telecommunication cables to be used as underwater cables. Typesof cables included in this family specification are "underwater cables" for lakes, river crossings etc. and are forcable systems without power feeding requirements. This specification does not cover repair capability.Requirements of the sectional specification for optical telecommunication cables EN 187100(EN 60794-3) are applicable to cables covered by this standard.
Clause 5 of this standard describes a blank detail specification for optical telecommunication cables tobe used as underwater cables. It incorporates some minimum requirements common to all EuropeanCountries.
Detail specifications may be prepared based on this family specification following in particularrequirements of clause 5. 2 General The parameters specified in this standard may be affected by measurement uncertainty arising eitherfrom measurement errors or calibration errors due to lack of suitable standards. Acceptance criteria shallbe interpreted with respect to this consideration. The total uncertainty of measurement for this standardshall be less than or equal to 0,05 dB for attenuation.
The expression of no change in attenuation means that any change in measurement value either positiveor negative, within the uncertainty of measurement shall be ignored.
The number of fibres tested shall be representative of the cable design and shall be agreed between theuser and the manufacturer. 3 Normative referencesThis European Standard incorporates by dated and undated reference, provisions from other publications.These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listedhereafter. For dated references subsequent amendments to, or revisions of any of these publications apply tothis European Standard only when incorporated in it by reference or revision.
