Overview
This part of IEC 60876 applies to fibre optic switches possessing all of the following general features: - they are passive in that they contain no optoelectronic or other transducing elements; - they have one or more ports for the transmission of optical power and two or more states in which power may be routed or blocked between these ports; - the ports are optical fibres or fibre optic connectors. Switches are used for signal distribution and switching on optical printed circuits or in closed packages for targeted switching by means of electric control. It is directed at manufacturers, users and test institutes. The responsible committee is Subcommittee 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.
