27、ation comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes Internat

28、ional Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in

29、 this preparatory work. International, governmental and non- governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the

30、 two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publications have

31、 the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misin

32、terpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding nation

33、al or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any services ca

34、rried out by independent certification bodies. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National C

35、ommittees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications. 8) Attention is draw

36、n to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not

37、be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard IEC 60793-1-44 has been prepared by subcommittee 86A: Fibres and cables, of IEC technical committee 86: Fibre optics. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2001. This edition c

38、onstitutes a technical revision. The main change with respect to the previous edition is the withdrawal of Annex D. Annexes A, B and C form an integral part of this standard. This standard should be read in conjunction with IEC 60793-1-1. 60793-1-44 IEC:2011 5 This bilingual edition corresponds to t

39、he monolingual English version, published in 2011-04. The text of this standard is based on the following documents: FDIS Report on voting 86A/1369/FDIS 86A/1385/RVD Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. Th

40、e French version of this standard has not been voted upon. This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. A list of all parts of the IEC 60793-1-4x series, published under the general title Optical fibres Measurement methods and test procedures, can be found on

41、the IEC website The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until the stability date indicated on the IEC web site under “http:/webstore.iec.ch“ in the data related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be reconfirmed, withdrawn, re

42、placed by a revised edition, or amended. 6 60793-1-44 IEC:2011 OPTICAL FIBRES Part 1-44: Measurement methods and test procedures Cut-off wavelength 1 Scope This part of IEC 60793 establishes uniform requirements for measuring the cut-off wavelength of single-mode optical fibre, thereby assisting in

43、the inspection of fibres and cables for commercial purposes. This standard gives the methods for measuring the cut-off wavelength of fibre and cable There are two methods for measuring cable cut-off wavelength, cc : Method A: using uncabled fibre; Method B: using cabled fibre. There is only one meth

44、od (Method C) for measuring fibre cut-off wavelength, c . The test method in this standard describes procedures for determining the cut-off wavelength of a sample fibre in either an uncabled condition ( c ) or in a cable ( cc ). Three default configurations are given here: any different configuratio

45、n will be given in a detail specification. These procedures apply to all category B and C fibre types (see Normative references). All methods require a reference measurement. There are two reference-scan techniques, either or both of which may be used with all methods: bend-reference technique; mult

46、imode-reference technique using category A1 multimode fibre. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (

47、including any amendments) applies. IEC 60793-1-1, Optical fibres Part 1-1: Measurement methods and test procedures General and guidance IEC 60793-1-40, Optical fibres Part 1-40: Measurement methods and test procedures Attenuation 3 Background Theoretical cut-off wavelength is the shortest wavelength

48、 at which only the fundamental mode can propagate in a single-mode fibre, as computed from the refractive index profile of the fibre. In optical fibres, the change from multimode to single-mode behaviour does not occur at an isolated wavelength, but rather smoothly over a range of wavelengths. For p

49、urposes of 60793-1-44 IEC:2011 7 determining fibre performance in a telecommunications network, theoretical cut-off wavelength is less useful than the lower value actually measured when the fibre is deployed. Measured cut-off wavelength is defined as the wavelength greater than which the ratio between the total power, including launched higher-order modes, and the fu
