27、cal and environmental performance requirements of a fully installed splice closure for use in optical distribution networks at ground level (category G) in order for it to be categorised as an EN standard product. This type of sealed closure is intended for easy and/or frequent opening and closing i
28、n FTTH distribution and drop cable networks. NOTE The sealing performance requirements and test severities of these closures are selected to obtain an IP 67 intrusion protection performance as defined in EN 60529. 1.2 Operating environment The tests selected combined with the severity and duration a
29、re representative of an outside plant for ground level environment defined by EN 61753-1, category G: ground level. This corresponds with: - operating temperature range: -40 C to +65 C; - direct exposure to non weather protected outside plant conditions; - deployment at ground level up to 3 metres a
30、bove ground level; - additionally to the category G environment, a deployment till 1 metre below ground level is added. Direct buried applications are allowed, however additional protection will be required when the locations are intended for passage of cars or other heavy vehicles. 1.3 Reliability
31、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 predicted using a recognised reliability assessment programme. 1.4 Quality assurance Compliance with thi
32、s specification does not guarantee the manufacturing consistency of the product. This should be maintained using a recognised quality assurance programme. 1.5 Allowed fibre and cable types Although the performance tests are carried out on test samples containing dispersion unshifted single mode fibr
33、e (see Annex A), the closure, once tested according to this product specification, will be also suited for other fibre types like dispersion shifted, non-zero dispersion shifted and multimode fibres. This closure standard allows both single mode and multimode fibre to be used and covers IEC standard
34、 optical fibre cables with their various fibre capacities, types and designs. This includes, but is not limited to, optical fibre cable standards EN 60794-2 (indoor), EN 60794-3 (outdoor). 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this documen

42、re splice closure A fibre splice closure comprises a housing providing a mean to attach the ends of the incoming and outcoming cables and a means for containing and protecting the fibres, splices and other passive optical devices. This is not to be confused with an optical closure for blowing cable
43、or fibre. This comprises an access housing that allows the interconnection of cable ducts or tubes and is attached to the ends of the ducts or cables containing empty tubes. However, EN 50411-2-10 shall be used when air blown fibres are spliced inside this type of closure. The closure provides facil
44、ities for environmental protection, housing for a fibre management system and sealing of input and output optical fibre cables. In order to comply with the standard, the optical functionality, geometrical, environmental and mechanical requirements are defined. The design of the closure housing shall
45、 allow the jointing of two or more cable ends in the following configurations or applications: BS EN 50411-2-10:2015EN 50411-2-10:2015 8 (T) Track joint configuration used to interconnect at least two cables (example: drop cable repair closure) Cable CableClosureFigure 1 (S) Spur joint configuration
46、 used to split one cable into at least 2 smaller cables. Figure 2 (D) Distribution joint configuration used on customer feed cable with minimum of 8 cable entries (D1), 10 cable entries (D2), 18 cable entries (D3) or 34 cable entries (D4) (see Clause 4). CableCableClosureDrop cable(s)Uncut fibresFig
47、ure 3 NOTE Cable entries can be more than one cable per cable entry port. The design of the distribution and spur joint closure housing shall allow the joining together of at least one pair of cables which are not at the end of a cable section, without cutting all fibres between both cable openings.
48、 This application is generally known as distribution joint or external node, but also called a mid-span closure or balloon splice. It is desirable that the distribution closure can be re-opened when necessary without interruption or disturbance of the traffic of the live circuits. 3.2 Closure overpr
49、essure safety Overpressure can build up in sealed closures due to temperature differentials, or due to atmospheric pressure changes over a period of time, or due to flash testing of the seals after installation, or due to incorrect installation techniques. Care should be taken when opening a sealed closure. Provisions shall be made that overpressure is exhausted when opening the closure prior to complete removal of the cover. For a
