Overview
The purpose of this part of IEC 61300 is to describe the procedure required to measure the statistical distribution and mean attenuation for random mated optical connectors with physical contact (PC) and angled physical contact (APC) polished 1-row multi-fibre rectangular ferrules as defined in the IEC 61754 series. This measurement method is also applicable to cable assemblies. Multi-fibre connectors and the cable assemblies form an integral part of modern data centre cabling. Quality of these products determines mainly the performance and fail-safe performance of modern cabling systems. The standard is directed at manufacturers, testing institutes and users. The responsible committee is Subcommittee UK 412.7 "LWL-Verbindungstechnik und passive optische Komponenten" ("Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive optical components") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
