Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components - Fibre optic passive chromatic dispersion compensators - Part 1: Generic specification (IEC 61978-1:2024)

This part of IEC 61978 applies to fibre optic passive chromatic dispersion compensators, all
exhibiting the following features:
– they are optically passive;
– they have an optical input and an optical output for transmitting optical power;
– the ports are optical fibres or optical fibre connectors;
– they are wavelength sensitive;
– they can be polarization sensitive.
This document establishes uniform requirements for the passive chromatic dispersion
compensator.

IEC 61978-1:2024 est disponible sous forme de IEC 61978-1:2024 RLV qui contient la Norme internationale et sa version Redline, illustrant les modifications du contenu technique depuis l'édition précédente.

L'IEC 61978-1:2024 s’applique aux compensateurs de dispersion chromatique passifs fibroniques qui présentent les caractéristiques suivantes:
- ils sont passifs au niveau optique;
- ils possèdent une entrée optique et une sortie optique pour la transmission de la puissance optique;
- les ports sont des fibres optiques ou des connecteurs optiques;
- ils sont sensibles aux longueurs d’onde;
- i ls peuvent être sensibles à la polarisation.
Le présent document établit des exigences uniformes pour les compensateurs de dispersion chromatique passifs. Cette quatrième édition annule et remplace la troisième édition parue en 2014. Cette édition constitue une révision technique.
Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l’édition précédente:
a) harmonisation des termes et définitions avec l’IEC TS 62627-09;
b) modification de l’Article 4 concernant les exigences.
