This specifi
21、cation does not cover cable assemblies, such as connectorized jumper cable, or the functional requirements for cable break-out (fan out). It also not covers cables for LAN applications and cables incorporating multimode fibres. Clause 5 of this standard describes a blank detail specification for opt
22、ical telecommunication cables to be used for indoor cables. It incorporates some minimum requirements common to all European countries. Detail specifications may be prepared based on this family specification following in particular requirements of clause 5. 2 General The parameters specified in thi
23、s standard may be affected by measurement uncertainty arising either from measurement errors or calibration errors due to lack of suitable standards. Acceptance criteria shall be interpreted with respect to this consideration. The total uncertainty of measurement for this standard shall be less than
24、 or equal to 0,05 dB for attenuation. The expression of no change in attenuation means that any change in measurement value either positive or negative, within the uncertainty of measurement shall be ignored. The number of fibres tested shall be representative of the cable design and shall be agreed
25、 between the user and the manufacturer. 3 Normative references This standard incorporates by dated and undated reference, provisions from other publications.
