This Sectional Specification applies to drop cables for indoor applications i

21、n networks (e.g.SMATV) whose frequency of operation is within the range5MHz 2150MHz. The purpose of the standard is to specify values and preferential characteristics of the cables, and to identify the applicable tests from the Generic Specification. Reference is made to suitable schemes for Quality

22、 Assessment. The numbering of the clauses is the same as in the Generic Specification. All the clauses from the generic are applicable unless otherwise stated in this sectional specification. Any variations from the generic specification are also detailed in this specification. 2 Reference standards
