DIN 58141-11
Measurement of fiber optic elements - Part 11: Determination of photometric characteristics of side emitting light guides; Text in German and English
Messung von faseroptischen Elementen - Teil 11: Bestimmung der lichttechnischen Eigenschaften seitlich abstrahlender Lichtleiter; Text Deutsch und Englisch
Overview
The DIN 58141 standard series specifies test methods for fibre optic elements. The standard DIN 58141-11 is applicable for testing of fibre optic elements and products for image and data transmission (distances up to 100 m) and transmission of light and optical radiation from the near-infrared and ultraviolet spectral range. It does not apply to fibre optic elements and products intended for transfer of messages and data over distances of more than 100 m. This standard specifies a uniform method to determine the optical characteristics of side emitting light guides. The methods described are based on fibre optic elements and products the lateral decoupling via a defined length is constant and has the effect of the initial length defined in 3.3. The standard has been prepared by Working Committee NA 027-01-16 AA "Faseroptik" ("Fibre optics") at NAFuO.
