Overview
This standard applies to fibre optic connector sets and individual components (that is, adaptors, plugs, sockets) for all types, sizes and structures of fibres and cables. The standard DIN EN 60874-1 (VDE 0885-874-1) is divided into four clauses: clauses 1 (Scope), 2 (Normative references) and 3 (Terms and definitions) contain general information pertaining to this generic specification. Clause 4 (Requirements) contains all the requirements to be met by connectors covered by this standard. This includes requirements for classification, the IEC specification system, documentation, materials, workmanship, quality, performance, identification, and packaging. The standard is directed at manufacturers, users and test laboratories. The standards of the series IEC 61753, IEC 61754 and IEC 61755 series are based on this standard. 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.
