Information technology - Measurement of end-to-end (E2E) links

This Standard specifies the measurement of end-to-end links of two- and four-pair balanced cabling of 100 MHz of Class D and 250 MHz of Class E including free connectors which terminate two and four pairs in both field and laboratory conditions.

Informationstechnik – Messung von Ende-zu-Ende-Verbindungsstrecken

Die symmetrische Verkabelung dient der Verbindung von Geräten mittels freier Steckverbinder. Es ist bekannt, dass Feldanschlüsse an allen Teilen der Übertragungsstrecke Auswirkungen auf das Leistungsvermögen der Übertragungsstrecke haben.
Unzulängliche Anschlüsse können das Leistungsvermögen der Übertragungsstrecke und die Zuverlässigkeit der Datenübertragung beeinträchtigen.
Bisher wurde zur Überprüfung von Verkabelung mit Feldanschlüssen das Leistungsvermögen von Übertragungsstrecken der Klasse D oder E nach EN 50173-1 gemessen. Bei der Messung von Übertragungsstrecken der Klasse D oder E werden die Verbindungen am Ende des Kabels nicht berücksichtigt. Bei der Messung von Übertragungsstrecken der Klasse D oder E werde die Auswirkungen unzulänglicher Anschlüsse der Verbindungen am Ende auf das Leistungsvermögen nicht ermittelt.
Bei der Messung des Leistungsvermögens einer Ende-zu-Ended-(EzE)-Verbindungsstrecke werden die Anschlüsse an beiden Enden der symmetrischen Verkabelung berücksichtigt.
Dieses Dokument beschreibt die Messung von EzE-Verbindungsstrecken symmetrischer Verkabelungen mit zwei und vier Paaren von Klasse D mit 100 MHz und Klasse E mit 250 MHz mittels Messverfahren mit Labor-und Feldprüfgeräten.
Das Leistungvermögen von EzE-Verbindungsstrecken ist in ISO/IEC TR 11801-9902 beschrieben.
Diese Europäische Norm ist eines der Dokumente zur Unterstützung der Europäischen Normen und Technischen Berichte über informations- und telekommunikationstechnische Verkabelung, die von CLC/TC 215 erstellt werden.

Technologies de l’information - Mesurage des liaisons de bout en bout (E2E)

La présente Norme européenne spécifie le mesurage des liaisons E2E des câblages à deux et quatre paires symétriques à des fréquences de 100 MHz pour la classe D et de 250 MHz pour la classe E comportant des fiches à l’extrémité de deux et quatre paires à la fois dans des conditions de laboratoire et de terrain.
Les spécifications pour les liaisons E2E sont décrites dans l’ISO/IEC TR 11801-9902.
Le présent document spécifie les procédures de mesure en laboratoire et sur le terrain. Les exigences concernant l’exactitude de mesure pour les paramètres de câblage identifiés dans l’ISO/IEC TR 11801-9902 sont données dans l’EN 61935-1 et dans l’EN 61935-2.

Informacijska tehnologija - Merjenje povezav od konca do konca (E2E)

Ta standard določa merjenje povezav od konca do konca dvo- in štirižilnih uravnoteženih kablov 100 MHz razreda D in 250 MHz razreda E, vključno s prostimi konektorji, s katerimi so zaključeni dvo- in štirižilni kabli, v terenskih in laboratorijskih pogojih.

Introduction
Balanced cabling is constructed for connecting equipment using free connectors. It is known that field
termination in all parts of the channel has an influence on the channel performance.
Poor termination can cause problems in the channel performance and can affect reliable data transmission.
Until now, a verification of the field terminated cabling was done by measurement of the channel
performance of Channel Class D or E according to EN 50173-1. The measurement of Channel Class D or E
excludes the connections at the end of the cable. The measurement of Channel Class D or E does not
identify the influence to the performance caused by bad terminations of the connections at the end.
The measurement of performance of end-to-end (E2E) link includes the termination on both ends of
balanced cabling.
This document describes the measurement of E2E links of two- and four-pair balanced cabling of 100 MHz
of Class D and 250 MHz of Class E using laboratory and field tester measurement procedures.
The performance of E2E links is described in ISO/IEC TR 11801-9902.
This European Standard is one of a number of documents prepared in support of European Standards and
Technical Reports on information and communication technology cabling produced by CLC/TC 215.
