21、s and in installed cable plants. In this standard, the fibre types that are addressed include category A1a (50 m /125 m) and A1b (62,5 m /125 m) multimode fibres, as specified in IEC 60793-2-10. The nominal test wavelengths detailed are 850 nm and 1 300 nm. This standard may be suitable for multimod

22、e attenuation measurements for other multimode categories and/or other wavelengths, but the source condition for other categories and wavelengths are not defined here. The purpose of these requirements is as follows: to ensure consistency of field measurements when different types of test equipment

23、are used; to ensure consistency of factory measurements when different types of test equipment are used; to ensure consistency of field measurements when compared with factory measurements. This standard describes launch condition requirements for optical attenuation using sources with a controlled

Light sources, typically used in measuring att

33、enuation, may produce varying modal distributions when launched into multimode fibre. These differing modal distributions, combined with the differential mode attenuation (DMA) inherent in most multimode components, commonly cause measurement variations when measuring attenuation of multimode compon

34、ents. For example, attenuation measurement variations can occur when two similar light sources or different launch cords are used. Legacy (LED based) applications had a wide power budget which in most cases masked the variance in results between the factory and field measurement. As technology has e

35、volved, the system requirements for attenuation have become more stringent. Demanding application requirements are driving the need for accurate and reproducible multimode attenuation measurements over a variety of field-test instruments. Attenuation measurement experiments, with different instrumen

36、ts having the same standards compliant set up, produce measurement variations that are induced by their differing launch conditions. BS EN 62614:201062614 IEC:2010 7 Experts have concluded that the launch condition should be expressed at the interface between the test instrument launch cord and the

37、terminated fibre to be tested. That is, the launch condition should be based in part on the measured near field at the output of the launch cord. The key to making reproducible loss measurements across various sources is to narrowly constrain the range of power distribution at large radii so that al

38、l compliant sources produce closely agreeing loss measurement results. This is because the variation in the allowed power distribution at large radii across different sources translates directly into variability of loss measurements. Smaller power variations enable more reproducible loss measurement

39、s. 5 Test source launch 5.1 General The source launch conditions are described at the output of the reference grade launch cord. It is expected that the source and launch cord, as supplied, have been verified by the test equipment manufacturer to produce the specified launch measured according to IE

40、C 61280-1-4. For reference grade fibre, core diameter tolerances of 0,7 m have been evaluated with some success. Variance of other parameters, such as numerical aperture and core concentricity, need more study. 5.2 Encircled flux The EF is determined from the near field measurement of the light comi

41、ng from the end of the reference grade launch cord in accordance with IEC 61280-1-4. The measured near field result is a function of the near field profile, I(r), of radius, r, away from the optical centre of the core, and the edge of the near field profile, R, which is used to generate the EF funct

47、nization of multimode launch conditions to eliminate wavelength bias Efforts were taken to harmonize the expected component losses at 850 nm and 1 300 nm wavelengths for a given fibre core diameter. This was accomplished by adjustment of the 850 nm and 1 300 EF targets to produce comparable extrinsi

48、c component losses. An example of matching the attenuation characteristics at the two wavelengths is illustrated in Figure 2. This elimination of bias provides an opportunity to ensure dual wavelength compliance of a passive component or short cable plant link using a single source condition. 2.001.
