Dynamic modules - Generic specification (IEC 62343:2023)
IEC 62343:2023 is available as which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.IEC 62343:2023 applies to all commercially available optical dynamic modules and devices. It describes the products covered by the IEC 62343 series, defines terminology, fundamental considerations and basic approaches. The object of this document is to:
- establish uniform requirements for operation, reliability and environmental properties of dynamic modules (DMs) to be implemented in the appropriate DM standard, and
- provide assistance to the purchaser in the selection of consistently high-quality DM products for their particular applications, as well as in the consultation of the appropriate specific DM standard(s).
This document covers performance templates, performance standards, reliability qualification requirements, hardware and software interfaces and related testing methods. Since a dynamic module integrates an optical module/device, printed wiring board, and software/firmware, the standards developed in the series will mimic appropriate existing standards. On the other hand, since "dynamic module" is a relatively new product category, the dynamic module standards series will not be bound by the existing practices where requirements differ.The safety standards as related to dynamic modules are mostly optical power considerations, which is covered by the IEC 60825 series (see Clause 6). This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2017. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
- addition of terms and definitions for optical multicast switches (3.8);
- revision of Clause 4, listing the requirements for standards in the IEC 62343 series;
- addition of Clause 6 (Safety requirements).
Dynamische Module - Allgemeines und Leitfaden (IEC 62343:2023)
Modules dynamiques - Généralités et lignes directrices (IEC 62343:2023)
IEC 62343:2023 est disponible sous forme de IEC 62343:2023 RLV qui contient la Norme internationale et sa version Redline, illustrant les modifications du contenu technique depuis l'édition précédente.
IEC 62343:2023 s’applique à tous les dispositifs et modules dynamiques optiques disponibles dans le commerce. Elle décrit les produits couverts par la série IEC 62343, définit la terminologie, les considérations fondamentales et les approches de base. Le présent document a pour objets:
- d’établir des exigences uniformes pour le fonctionnement, la fiabilité et les propriétés environnementales des modules dynamiques (DM) à intégrer dans la norme appropriée sur les modules dynamiques, et
- d’aider l’acheteur à choisir des produits à modules dynamiques de haute qualité dans le cadre de ses applications particulières et à consulter les normes appropriées sur les modules dynamiques spécifiques.
Le présent document couvre les modèles de performance, les normes de performance, les exigences sur la qualification de la fiabilité, les interfaces matérielles et logicielles et les méthodes d’essais associées. Puisqu’un module dynamique intègre un module ou un dispositif optique, une carte imprimée et un logiciel ou un microprogramme, les normes développées dans la série calquent des normes existantes appropriées. D’autre part, un "module dynamique" étant une catégorie de produit relativement nouvelle, la série de normes sur les modules dynamiques n’est pas limitée par les pratiques existantes dans lesquelles les exigences diffèrent. Les normes de sécurité se rapportant aux modules dynamiques sont principalement des considérations sur la puissance optique, qui sont traitées par la série IEC 60825 (voir l’Article 6).
Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition parue en 2017. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l’édition précédente:
- ajout de termes et de définitions relatifs aux commutateurs optiques multidiffusions (3.8);
- révision de l’Article 4 énumérant les exigences relatives aux normes de la série IEC 62343;
- ajout de l’Article 6 (Exigences de sécurité).
Dinamični moduli - Splošna specifikacija (IEC 62343:2023)
Na voljo je IEC 62343:2023, ki vsebuje mednarodni standard in njegovo različico z revizijami, ki prikazujejo vse spremembe tehnične vsebine v primerjavi s prejšnjo izdajo. Standard IEC 62343:2023 velja za vse optične dinamične module in naprave, ki so na voljo na trgu. Opisuje izdelke, ki jih zajema skupina standardov IEC 62343-X, določa terminologijo, glavne dejavnike in osnovne pristope. Cilj tega dokumenta je:
– vzpostaviti enotne zahteve za delovanje, zanesljivost in okoljske lastnosti dinamičnih modulov (DM), ki bodo vključene v ustrezne standarde modulov DM in
– zagotoviti pomoč kupcu pri izbiri izdelkov DM z dosledno visoko kakovostjo za njihovo uporabo in ustreznih standardov za module DM.
Ta dokument zajema predloge delovanja, standarde delovanja, kvalifikacijske zahteve glede zanesljivosti, vmesnike strojne in programske opreme ter povezane preskusne metode. Ker dinamični modul vključuje optični modul/napravo, tiskano vezje ter programsko/strojno opremo, bodo standardi, razviti v tej seriji, posnemali ustrezne obstoječe standarde. Ker pa je »dinamični modul« relativno nova kategorija izdelka, obstoječe prakse ne bodo zavezujoče za skupine standardov za dinamični modul, kjer se zahteve razlikujejo. Varnostni standardi, povezani z dinamičnimi moduli, se večinoma nanašajo na optično moč, ki je zajeta v seriji IEC 60825 (glej točko 6). Tretja izdaja razveljavlja in nadomešča drugo izdajo, objavljeno leta 2017. Ta izdaja je tehnično popravljena izdaja. Ta izdaja v primerjavi s prejšnjo vključuje naslednje pomembne tehnične spremembe:
– dodajanje izrazov in opredelitev za multimedijska optična stikala (3.8);
– sprememba točke 4, ki navaja zahteve za standarde iz serije IEC 62343;
– dodana točka 6 (Varnostne zahteve).

DYNAMIC MODULES – GENERIC SPECIFICATION
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 62343 has been prepared by subcommittee 86C: Fibre optic systems and active devices,
of IEC technical committee 86: Fibre optics. It is an International Standard.

INTRODUCTION
This document applies to dynamic devices as defined in IEC TS 62538. This document contains
general guidance for the IEC 62343 series related to dynamic devices and definitions which
apply to dynamic devices. The dynamic module (DM), or device, has two distinguishing
characteristics: dynamic and module.
"Dynamic" highlights the functions of the products to include "tuning, varying, switching,
configuring, and other continuous optimization," often accomplished by electronics, firmware,
software or their combinations. The dynamic device usually has a certain level of intelligence
to monitor or measure its configuration or settings and make decisions for necessary
(optimization) actions. The behaviour of dynamic modules can be characterized by transient
characteristics as the dynamic module undergoes tuning, switching, configuring, and other
continuous optimization. Characterization of transient characteristics will be considered in
individual dynamic module standards.
"Module" defines that products covered by this document are the integration of active and
passive components (either or both), through interconnecting materials or devices. The
controlling electronics can be inside or outside the optical package that contains all or most of
the optical components and interconnection. The product can be a small printed wiring board
(PWB) or child-board with mounted optical module, or it can be a small box (e.g., housing) with
optical components and electronics enclosed. In the former case, it is more like an assembly
(i.e., generally not packaged in a box or housing) than a module (i.e., generally packaged in a
box or housing).
For historical reasons and convenience, a dynamic module or device is referred to as a dynamic
module in the IEC 62343 series.
The number of dynamic modules and devices is rapidly growing as optical communications
networks evolve. The following list provides some examples of the products covered by the
IEC 62343 series. It should be noted that the list is not exhaustive and the products to be
covered are not limited by the listed examples:
• channel gain equalizer;
• dynamic channel equalizer;
• dynamic gain tilt equalizer;
• dynamic slope equalizer;
• tuneable chromatic dispersion compensator;
• polarization mode dispersion compensator;
• reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer;
• switch with monitoring and controls;
• variable optical attenuator with monitoring and controls;
• optical channel monitor;
• wavelength selective switch;
• optical multicast switch.
The IEC 62343 series covers performance templates, performance standards, reliability
qualification requirements, hardware and software interfaces, and related testing methods.

– 6 – IEC 62343:2023 © IEC 2023
The structure of the IEC 62343 series, under the general title Dynamic modules, is as follows:
• IEC 62343-1 series Part 1: Performance standards
• IEC 62343-2 series Part 2: Reliability qualification
• IEC 62343-3 series Part 3: Performance specification templates
• IEC 62343-4 series Part 4: Software and hardware interface
• IEC 62343-5 series Part 5: Test methods
• IEC 62343-6 series Part 6: Design guidelines
A complete set of standards related to a dynamic module or device should include the following:
• optical performance standards;
• reliability qualification standards;
• optical performance specification templates;
• hardware and software interface standards;
• test methods;
• technical reports.
The safety standards related to dynamic modules are mostly optical power considerations,
which are covered by the IEC 60825 series.
Only those dynamic modules for which standards are complete or in preparation are included
in Clause 3. To reflect the rapidly growing market for dynamic modules, additional terms and
definitions will be added in subsequent revisions as the series expands.
It should be noted that optical amplifiers could be regarded as dynamic modules. They are not
included in the IEC 62343 series but are covered in their own series of IEC standards.

DYNAMIC MODULES – GENERIC SPECIFICATION
1 Scope
This document applies to all commercially available optical dynamic modules and devices. It
describes the products covered by the IEC 62343 series, defines terminology, fundamental
considerations and basic approaches.
The object of this document is to
• establish uniform requirements for operation, reliability and environmental properties of
dynamic modules (DMs) to be implemented in the appropriate DM standard, and
• provide assistance to the purchaser in the selection of consistently high-quality DM products
for their particular applications, as well as in the consultation of the appropriate specific DM
standard(s).
This document covers performance templates, performance standards, reliability qualification
requirements, hardware and software interfaces and related testing methods.
Since a dynamic module integrates an optical module/device, printed wiring board, and
software/firmware, the standards developed in the series will mimic appropriate existing
standards. On the other hand, since "dynamic module" is a relatively new product category, the
dynamic module standards series will not be bound by the existing practices where
requirements differ.
The safety standards as related to dynamic modules are mostly optical power considerations,
which is covered by the IEC 60825 series (see Clause 6).

44 FOREWORD
45 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
46 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
47 international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
48 this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
49 Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
50 Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
51 in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
52 governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
53 with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
54 agreement between the two organizations.
55 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
56 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
57 interested IEC National Committees.
58 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
59 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
60 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
61 misinterpretation by any end user.
62 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
63 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
64 between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
65 the latter.
66 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
67 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
68 services carried out by independent certification bodies.
69 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
70 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
71 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
72 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
73 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
74 Publications.
75 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
76 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
77 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
78 patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
79 IEC 62343 has been prepared by subcommittee 86C: Fibre optic systems and active devices,
80 of IEC technical committee 86: Fibre optics. It is an International Standard.
81 This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2017. This edition
82 constitutes a technical revision.
83 This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
84 edition:
85 a) addition of terms and definitions for optical multicast switches (Clause 3.8);
86 b) revision of Clause 4, listing the requirements for standards in the IEC 62343 series;
87 c) addition of Clause 6 (Safety requirements).

108 INTRODUCTION
109 IEC 62343 applies to dynamic devices as defined in IEC TS 62538. This document contains
110 general guidance for the IEC 62343 series related to dynamic devices and definitions which
111 apply to dynamic devices. The dynamic module (DM), or device, has two distinguishing
112 characteristics: dynamic and module.
113 "Dynamic" highlights the functions of the products to include "tuning, varying, switching,
114 configuring, and other continuous optimization," often accomplished by electronics, firmware,
115 software or their combinations. The dynamic device usually has a certain level of intelligence
116 to monitor or measure its configuration or settings and make decisions for necessary
117 (optimization) actions. The behaviour of dynamic modules can be characterized by transient
118 characteristics as the dynamic module undergoes tuning, switching, configuring, and other
119 continuous optimization. Characterization of transient characteristics will be considered in
120 individual dynamic module standards.
121 "Module" defines that products covered by this standard are the integration of active and
122 passive components (either or both), through interconnecting materials or devices. The
123 controlling electronics can be inside or outside the optical package that contains all or most of
124 the optical components and interconnection. The product can be a small printed wiring board
125 (PWB) or child-board with mounted optical module, or it can be a small box (e.g., housing)
126 with optical components and electronics enclosed. In the former case, it is more like an
127 assembly (i.e., generally not packaged in a box or housing) than a module (i.e., generally
128 packaged in a box or housing).
129 For historical reasons and convenience, a dynamic module or device is referred to as a
130 dynamic module in the IEC 62343 series.
131 The number of dynamic modules and devices is rapidly growing as optical communications
132 networks evolve. The following list provides some examples of the products covered by the
133 IEC 62343 series. It should be noted that the list is not exhaustive and the products to be
134 covered are not limited by the listed examples:
135 • channel gain equalizer;
136 • dynamic channel equalizer;
137 • dynamic gain tilt equalizer;
138 • dynamic slope equalizer;
139 • tuneable chromatic dispersion compensator;
140 • polarization mode dispersion compensator;
141 • reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer;
142 • switch with monitoring and controls;
143 • variable optical attenuator with monitoring and controls;
144 • optical channel monitor;
145 • wavelength selective switch;
146 • optical multicast switch.
147 The IEC 62343 series covers performance templates, performance standards, reliability
148 qualification requirements, hardware and software interfaces, and related testing methods.
149 The structure of the IEC 62343 series, under the general title Dynamic modules, is as follows:
150 • 62343-1 series Part 1: Performance standards
151 • 62343-2 series Part 2: Reliability qualification
---------------------- Page: 7 ----------------------
oSIST prEN IEC 62343:2022
IEC CDV 62343/Ed3 © IEC 2022 – 6 – 86C/1803/CDV
152 • 62343-3 series Part 3: Performance specification templates
153 • 62343-4 series Part 4: Software and hardware interface standards
154 • 62343-5 series Part 5: Test methods
155 • 62343-6 series Part 6: Design guidelines
156 A complete set of standards related to a dynamic module or device should include the
157 following:
158 • optical performance standards;
159 • reliability qualification standards;
160 • optical performance specification templates;
161 • hardware and software interface standards;
162 • test methods;
163 • technical reports.
164 The safety standards related to dynamic modules are mostly optical power considerations,
165 which are covered by IEC TC 76: Optical radiation safety and laser equipment.
166 Only those dynamic modules for which standards are complete or in preparation are included
167 in Clause 3. To reflect the rapidly growing market for dynamic modules, additional terms and
168 definitions will be added in subsequent revisions as the series expands.
169 It should be noted that optical amplifiers could be regarded as dynamic modules. They are not
170 included in the IEC 62343 series but are covered in their own series of IEC standards.

173 DYNAMIC MODULES – GENERIC SPECIFICATION
174
175 1 Scope
176 IEC 62343 applies to all commercially available optical dynamic modules and devices. It
177 describes the products covered by the IEC 62343 series, defines terminology, fundamental
178 considerations and basic approaches.
179 The object of this document is to
180 • establish uniform requirements for operation, reliability and environmental properties of
181 dynamic modules (DMs) to be implemented in the appropriate DM standard, and
182 • provide assistance to the purchaser in the selection of consistently high-quality DM
183 products for his particular applications, as well as in the consultation of the appropriate
184 specific DM standard(s).
185 This document covers performance templates, performance standards, reliability qualification
186 requirements, hardware and software interfaces and related testing methods.
187 Since a dynamic module integrates an optical module/device, printed wiring board, and
188 software/firmware, the standards developed in the series will mimic appropriate existing
189 standards. On the other hand, since "dynamic module" is a relatively new product category,
190 the dynamic module standards series will not be bound by the existing practices where
191 requirements differ.
192 The safety standards as related to dynamic modules are mostly optical power considerations,
193 which is covered by IEC TC 76: Optical radiation safety and laser equipment (see Clause 6).
