7、 G.650.3 Test methods for installed single-mode optical fibre cable links Summary Recommendation ITU-T G.650.3 outlines the tests normally carried out on installed single-mode optical fibre cable links. It includes a collection of references to the main measurement methods and gives an indication of
8、 which are most suitable for installed cable links, depending on the required inspection level. Optical fibre cable links are comprised of multiple cable sections, splices and other connections. This term is more completely defined in this Recommendation. This Recommendation uses a tiered approach.
9、The first level indicates measurements that are normally carried out to commission new optical fibre cable links. The second level indicates measurements that may be carried out to satisfy service level agreements (e.g., when a dark fibre contract is signed) or to verify attributes of older links th
10、at may be used at higher bit rates or over extended wavelength ranges. Recommendation ITU-T G.650.3 (2017) introduces the provision of information of splice loss measurement based on the quasi-bidirectional technique in Appendix IV. The method for differentiating splice loss and macrobending loss in
11、 installed links, which was issued as Amendment 1 to ITU-T G.650.3 (2008), is also included as Appendix III.

ITU-T G.650.3 (08/2017) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication
14、 Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTS
15、A), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall w
16、ithin ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recom
17、mendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language suc
18、h as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTSITU draws attention to the possibility that the practice or implementation of this Recommend
19、ation may involve the use of a claimed Intellectual Property Right. ITU takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of claimed Intellectual Property Rights, whether asserted by ITU members or others outside of the Recommendation development process. As of the date of approva
20、l of this Recommendation, ITU had not received notice of intellectual property, protected by patents, which may be required to implement this Recommendation. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information and are therefore strongly urged to consult the TSB pat

26、cal fibre cable links 1 Scope This Recommendation describes test methods that are particularly suited to the characterization of single-mode optical fibre cable links. The methods are not intended for application to links that contain optical network elements, amplifiers, dispersion compensators, pa
27、ssive splitters or combiners. Measurements associated with these devices in combination with optical fibre cable are defined in ITU-T G.66x or ITU-T G.67x series Recommendations. These measurements of the cable links between such devices and the calculation methods for combining the results of conca
28、tenated cable links are also presented. This Recommendation uses a tiered approach. The first level indicates measurements that are normally carried out to commission new optical fibre cable links. The second level indicates measurements that may be carried out to satisfy service level agreements (e
29、.g., when a dark fibre contract is signed) or to verify attributes of older links that may be used at higher bit rates or over extended wavelength ranges. 2 References The following ITU-T Recommendations and other references contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provis

42、 splices between cable sections and connections between, and at the end of, cable sections. The definition of attenuation is given in ITU-T G.650.1. Some examples of link attenuation measurement results are found in b-ITU-T G-Sup.39. 3.2.2 chromatic dispersion of an optical fibre cable link: The sum
43、mation of the chromatic dispersions of the individual cables that comprise the link at the wavelengths of interest. See b-ITU-T G-Sup.39 for more information on how the dispersion from different cable sections is summed. Rec. ITU-T G.650.3 (08/2017) 3 3.2.3 fibre characterization: A comprehensive su
44、ite of measurements that is carried out on an optical fibre cable link to determine the key performance attributes of that link that may affect current or future applications that operate over the link. Fibre characterization also allows the quality of the optical fibre cable link to be assessed, in
45、cluding the identification of the type and grade of fibre installed. Full fibre characterization includes connector end face inspection, insertion loss measurements, return loss measurements, optical time domain reflectometer (OTDR) testing, chromatic dispersion testing, polarization mode dispersion
46、 measurement and spectral attenuation. 3.2.4 single-mode optical fibre cable link: A collection of passive fibre optic components that together form a continuous optical fibre pathway between two end points. The end points will typically be patch panels or optical distribution frames where the fibre
47、s are terminated with connectors. The link will typically be comprised of many optical fibre cable sections, jointed end to end. A complex link may contain additional connectors at intermediate patch panels and therefore be made up of two or more concatenated simple links. 3.2.5 uniformity of fibre
48、link: The longitudinal variation in the attenuation coefficient or chromatic dispersion coefficient along that link. 4 Abbreviations and acronyms This Recommendation uses the following abbreviations and acronyms: BOTDA Brillouin Time Domain Analysis CD Chromatic Dispersion CWDM Coarse Wavelength Div
