23、s, which a singlemode mechanical spliceshall meet in order for it to be categorised as an EN standard product. Since different variants and grades of performance are permitted, product marking and identification details are given in 3.5. Although in this document the product is qualified for EN 6079

24、3-2-50 types B1.1 and B1.3 singlemode fibres, it may also be suitable for other fibre types. 1.2 Interoperability The installed mechanical splice fits into a fibre management system with optical fibre splice cassettes or splice trays. This European Standard specifies the following two physical inter

25、face dimensions: a) cross sectional profile with width, height or diameter (in millimetres); b) length (in millimetres). 1.3 Expected performance In this document, the performance of a mechanical splice is given with identical fibres only. Losses associated with fibre cladding diameter and mode fiel

26、d mismatch are not taken into account. The measured attenuation is a function of the core concentricity, cladding non-circularity and alignment capability. The optical return loss performance is a function of the index matching gel and the fibre end face preparation. 1.4 Operating environment The te

27、sts selected combined with the severities and durations are representative of an outdoor enclosed environment defined as category U in EN 61753-1. To ensure that the product can be used in closures, boxes or street cabinet for categories A, G and S (as defined EN 61753-1) the specified lower tempera

28、ture is extended to - 40 C and requirements for temporary flooding have been added. 1.5 Reliability Whilst the anticipated service life expectancy of the product in this environment is 20 years, compliance with this specification does not guarantee the reliability of the product. This should be pred

29、icted using a recognised reliability assessment programme. 1.6 Quality assurance Compliance with this specification does not guarantee the manufacturing consistency of the product. This standard does not cover quality insurance. BS EN 50411-3-2:2011EN 50411-3-2:2011 6 2 Normative references The foll

37、53-1:2007) 3 Description 3.1 General A singlemode mechanical fibre splice is a passive optical interconnection component which provides optical and mechanical continuity between two optical fibres or cables. The products described in this specification are based on mechanical alignment of two cleave

38、d fibres. The fibres are protected against ingress of dust or water by a sealing material, generally an index matching gel, to both minimise reflections and to improve attenuation at the glass/gel/glass interface. BS EN 50411-3-2:2011 7 EN 50411-3-2:2011 Some splices may have a limited reinstallatio

39、n capability. In this case the re-installability shall be clearly stated and the re-installation test 10 in 8.3 shall be conducted. 3.2 Mechanical splice An optical fibre mechanical splice body contains the following pre-assembled elements: an alignment device; a sealing and index matching gel insid

40、e; a fibre alignment activation device like a spring, wedge or plunger; a fibre clamping or fixing able to withstand axial fibre loads. Mechanical splices designed for use with cables shall contain strain relief fixing. 3.3 Materials Materials which are not specified or which are not specifically de

41、scribed are left to the discretion of the manufacturer. However, the following requirements shall be met: all materials that are likely to come in contact with personnel shall meet appropriate health and safety regulations; the sealing and index matching materials shall be compatible with the materi

42、als of the fibres and the mechanical splice parts; all components of the splice shall be resistant to solvents and degreasing agents that are typically used to clean and degrease fibres and cables; metallic parts shall be resistant to the corrosive influences they may encounter during the lifetime o

43、f the product; exterior polymer materials shall be resistant to mould growth. 3.4 Dimensions Outline dimensions are specified. All other dimensions are left to the discretion of the manufacturer. 3.5 Colour and marking Marking of the product or packaging shall be in the following order of precedence

44、: a) identification of supplier; b) manufacturing date code: year/week; c) manufacturers part number; d) variant identification number. There is no preferred colour specified.

The purpose of testing is to demonstrate that a mechanical splice remains functional under defined environmental conditions, without failures. Optical performance testing is accomplished by subjecting the test specimen to a number of mechanical and environmental conditions and by measuring any optical performance deviations at prescribed intervals during and after
