Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components - Basic test and measurement procedures - Part 3-14: Examinations and measurements - Error and repeatability of the attenuation settings of a variable optical attenuator (IEC 61300-3-14:2014)

This part of IEC 61300 provides a method to measure the error and repeatability of the
attenuation value settings of a variable optical attenuator (VOA). There are two control
technologies for VOAs, manually controlled and electrically controlled. This standard covers
both control technologies of VOAs and also covers both single-mode and multimode fibre
VOAs.

IEC 61300-3-14:2014 fournit une méthode destinée à mesurer l'erreur et répétabilité des réglages des valeurs d'affaiblissement d'un affaiblisseur optique variable (VOA, variable optical attenuator). Il existe deux technologies de commande pour les VOA, à commande manuelle et à commande électrique. La présente norme couvre ces deux technologies de commande des VOA, ainsi que les VOA à fibres unimodales et multimodales. Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition publiée en 2006, et constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:
- modification du titre visant à remplacer le terme "précision" par "erreur";
- intégration dans le Domaine d'application de la distinction entre les affaiblisseurs optiques variables à commande manuelle et électrique;
- révision des articles relatifs à l'appareillage et précisions en vue de l'harmonisation avec d'autres normes de la série 61300;
- ajout de “l'écart maximal d’affaiblissement par rapport au réglage” dans l'article relatif au calcul;
- ajout de “méthode de mesure des caractéristiques d'hystérésis” dans l'Annexe B.
Mots clés: réglages des valeurs d'affaiblissement, affaiblisseur optique variable (VOA, variable optical attenuator).

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 61300-3-14 has been prepared by subcommittee 86B: Fibre optic
interconnecting devices and passive components, of IEC technical committee 86: Fibre optics.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2006 and constitutes a
technical revision
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
a) title modification replacing the word "accuracy" by "error";
b) inclusion of the distinction of manually and electrically controlled variable optical
