Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components - Basic test and measurement procedures - Part 2-43: Tests - Screen testing of return loss of single-mode PC optical fibre connectors (IEC 61300-2-43:2022)

This part of IEC 61300 aims at screening single-mode physical contact (PC) optical fibre
connector plugs of an optical fibre patch cord or an optical fibre pigtail in terms of return loss,
thus ensuring minimum return loss when the connector plugs are randomly mated with each
other in the field. This document is intended to apply to cylindrical ferrule connector plugs.

IEC 61300-2-43:2022 est disponible sous forme de IEC 61300-2-43:2022 RLV qui contient la Norme internationale et sa version Redline, illustrant les modifications du contenu technique depuis l'édition précédente.

L'IEC 61300-2-43: 2022 a pour objet de procéder à une sélection des fiches de connexion pour fibres optiques unimodales à contact physique (PC, physical contact) montées sur un cordon de brassage à fibre optique ou une fibre optique amorce, en fonction de leur affaiblissement de réflexion, pour garantir ainsi un affaiblissement de réflexion minimal lorsque les fiches de connexion sont accouplées sans choix préalable dans le terrain. Le présent document est destiné à s’appliquer aux fiches de connexion équipées de férules cylindriques. Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition parue en 2014. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. La présente édition inclut la modification technique majeure suivante par rapport à l’édition précédente: ajout de l’Article 3 contenant les termes, définitions et abréviations.

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.
IEC 61300-2-43 has been prepared by subcommittee 86B: Fibre optic interconnecting devices
and passive components, of IEC technical committee 86: Fibre optics. It is an International
Standard.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2014. This edition
constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical change with respect to the previous
edition: addition of Clause 3 containing terms, definitions, and abbreviated terms.
