39、TOR TELECOMMUNICATIONS CABLE TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS SECTION 1 GENERAL 1.1 PURPOSE: The purpose of this Standard is to establish generic technical requirements that may be referenced by individual telecommunications cable specifications covering products intended for normal .outside plant use. The pa
40、rameters covered provide material, construction, and performance requirements that are applicable to filled, polyolefin insulated and jacketed cables of all pair counts, including a variety of shield and jacket combinations and optional compartmental screening. Because this Standard does not cover a
41、ll details of individual cable design, it cannot be used as a single document for procurement of product. It is intended to be used in conjunction with an individual product specification that provides complete design details for the specific cable type and designates the applicable performance requ
42、irements. Such individual cable specifications may be prepared either by the user or the manufacturer. The specification designated for procurement is at the option of the user. 1.2 SCOPE: This Standard covers mechanical and electrical requirements for filled, polyolefin insulated, copper conductor
43、telecommunications cable. It provides alternative choices for type of insulation, type of filling compound, core lay-ups, color code, sheath design (shielding materials, single or double jackets, and jacket thicknesses), and screened or non-screened core. 1.3 OPTIONS AND INFORMATION: These cables ar
44、e traditional outside plant (OSP) cables having a nominal mutual capacitance of 52 nF/km (83 nF/mile) at 1 kHz with attenuation and crosstalk characterized at discrete frequencies up to 6.3 MHz. For cables characterized above 6.3 MHz, refer to ICEA S-99-689, Broadband Twisted Pair Cable, Filled, Pol
45、yolefin Insulated, Copper Conductor. This Standard is arranged in Sections covering one specific area of cable requirement and may be referenced as complete Sections or as individual paragraphs. 1 ANSIIICEA S-84-608-201 0 Sections of this Standard where the user may specify a particular option are l

47、tenuation Length Markings Optional Requirements To assist the user in selection of options and to avoid possible misunderstandings between the manufacturer and user, it is suggested that a check-off sheet similar to that shown in Informative Annex A be utilized. 1.4 UNITS AND TOLERANCES: SI units (s
48、ee NIST-SP 811) are specified throughout this Standard except for conductor size. Approximate US equivalents and Fahrenheit temperatures are provided for information only. The rounding method of ASTM E 29 shall be used for determining conformance with requirements. 1.5 REFERENCES: All documents refe
49、renced herein shall be as listed in Table 1 with issues and/or dates as indicated. When a specific date or issue number is not indicated, the latest issue shall be used. 1.6 QUALITY ASSURANCE: It is the responsibility of the manufacturer to establish a quality assurance system consistent with TL-9000, or an alternate system acceptable to the user. When the user wishes to require a specific quality assurance program or special testing procedures, agreement between the user and the manufacturer should be reached before the order is placed.
