Overview
This part of IEC 61300 deals with the various methods available to measure the wavelength dependence of attenuation A(λ) and return loss RL(λ) of single-mode passive optical components (POC) used in fibre-optic (FO) telecommunications. It is not, however, applicable to dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) devices. Measurement methods of wavelength dependence of attenuation of DWDM devices are described in IEC 61300-3-29. Definition of WDM device types is given in IEC 62074-1. These components are used in modern fibre optic cable telecommunication networks. The standard is directed at manufacturers, users and testing institutes. It cites standards of the IEC 61300 series. The responsible committee is DKE/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.
