14、on networks. This type of attenuator is sometimes referred to as a build-out attenuator. The present document does not cover variable or pigailed attenuators. The scope of the Standard is the establishment of minimum uniform requirements for the foilowing aspects: - - test conditions; - acceptance c
15、riteria. optical, environmental and mechanical properties; Reliability aspects of connector-type optical attenuators are not covered by the present document. Someusers may require further testing to be specified. Examples would be extending the lower temperature limit, specifying modal noise limits
16、and extending operation into the 1 600 nm to 1 650 nm wavelength test window. These users should specify the present document plu their additional special requirements. Acceptance criteria will be interpreted with the consideration that some of the parameters specified in the present document may be
17、 affected by measurement uncertainty arising either from measurement or calibration errors. Test methods are in accordance with EN 186000-1 5, EN 180000 2 or IEC 61300 series i, 3, 4. For a definition of a Connector-type optical attenuator see subclause 3.1 of the present document. 2 References The
