Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components - Connector optical interfaces for single-mode fibres - Part 2-2: Connection parameters of dispersion unshifted physically contacting fibres - Angled (IEC 61755-2-2:2022)

This part of IEC 61755 defines a set of prescribed conditions for a single-mode fibre optic
connection that is maintained in order to satisfy the requirements of attenuation and return loss
(RL) performance in a randomly mated pair of angled polished physically contacting (APC)
fibres. The model uses a Gaussian distribution of light intensity over the specified mode field
diameter (MFD) for determination of attenuation performance grades, based on MFD mismatch
and the amount of lateral and angular fibre core offsets. Attenuation and RL performance grades
are defined in IEC 61755-1.

L'IEC 61755-2-2:2022 définit un ensemble de conditions prescrites pour maintenir une connexion optique de fibres unimodales permettant de satisfaire aux exigences de performance d’affaiblissement et d’affaiblissement de réflexion (RL) dans une paire de fibres polies en contact physique avec angle (APC), accouplées sans choix préalable. Le modèle utilise une distribution gaussienne de l’intensité lumineuse sur le diamètre de champ de mode (MFD, Mode Field Diameter) spécifié, afin de déterminer les classes de performance d’affaiblissement sur la base de la discordance MFD et de la quantité de décalages latéraux et angulaires des cœurs de fibre. Les classes de performance d’affaiblissement et de RL sont définies dans l’IEC 61755-1. Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition parue en 2006. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l’édition précédente:
a) ajout de références normatives et d’exigences visuelles;
b) réexamen de l’ensemble des parties du texte pour prévenir toute mauvaise utilisation de la norme.

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. IE

52 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
53 any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
54 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
55 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
56 services carried out by independent certification bodies.
57 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
58 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
59 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
60 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
61 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
62 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
63 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.

65 rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
66 International Standard IEC 61755-2-2 has been prepared by subcommittee 86B. Fibre optic
67 interconnecting devices and passive components, of IEC technical committee 86: Fibre optics.
68 This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2006. It constitutes a

70 – add normative references and visual requirements
71 – reconsider the whole parts of the text to avoid misuse of the standard.
72 The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents:
