SIST EN 62037-3:2012

Passive r.f. and microwave devices, intermodulation level measurement - Part 3: Measurement of passive intermodulation in coaxial connectors (IEC 62037-3:2012)

This part of IEC 62037 defines the impact test on coaxial connectors to evaluate their robustness against weak connections and particles inside the connector as independently as possible from the effects of cable PIM (passive intermodulation). For other connectors (e.g. panel mounted connectors), the cable can be replaced by an adequate transmission-line (e.g. airline, stripline). In order to evaluate the effects of mechanical stresses on the connectors, a series of impacts is applied to the connectors while measuring the PIM.

Dispositifs RF et à micro-ondes passifs, mesure du niveau d’intermodulation - Partie 3: Mesure de l’intermodulation passive dans les connecteurs coaxiaux (CEI 62037-3:2012)

La CEI 62037-3:2012 définit l'essai de choc sur des connecteurs coaxiaux pour évaluer leur robustesse dans le cas de connexions faibles et contre des particules à l'intérieur des connecteurs, aussi indépendamment que possible des effets de l'intermodulation passive des câbles. Pour les autres connecteurs (par exemple les connecteurs montés sur panneaux), le câble peut être remplacé par une ligne de transmission adéquate (par exemple guide d'ondes, ligne à ruban). Afin d'évaluer les effets des contraintes mécaniques sur les connecteurs, une série de chocs est appliquée aux connecteurs, tout en mesurant l'intermodulation passive.

Pasivne radiofrekvenčne (rf) in mikrovalovne naprave, meritve intermodulacijskega nivoja - 3. del: Meritve pasivne intermodulacije v koaksialnih konektorjih (IEC 62037-3:2012)

Ta del standarda IEC 62037 določa preskus vpliva na koaksialne konektorje za ugotavljanje njihove trdnosti v primerjavi s šibkimi povezavami in delci v konektorju, čim bolj neodvisno od učinkov kabla PIM (pasivna intermodulacija). Pri drugih konektorjih (npr. konektorji za panelno vgradnjo) je kabel mogoče nadomestiti z ustreznim prenosnim daljnovodom (npr. zračni vod, ploščati valovod). Za ocenjevanje učinkov mehanskih vplivov na konektorje se med merjenjem pasivne intermodulacije uporablja skupina vplivov.

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
