Connectors for electronic equipment. Tests and measurements. Signal integrity tests up to 1000 MHz on IEC 60603-7 and IEC 61076-3 series connectors. Tests 28a to 28g | Status: Superseded, Withdrawn

1 Scope This part of IEC 60512 specifies the test methods for transmission performance for IEC 60603‑7 and IEC 61076‑3 series connectors up to 1 000 MHz. It is also suitable for testing lower frequency connectors, however the test methodology specified in the detailed specification for any given connector remains the reference conformance test for that connector. The test methods provided here are:

• – insertion loss, test 28a;
• – return loss, test 28b;
• – near-end crosstalk (NEXT) test 28c;
• – far-end crosstalk (FEXT), test 28d;
• – transverse conversion loss (TCL), test 28f;
• – transverse conversion transfer loss (TCTL), test 28g.

For the transfer impedance (ZT) test, see IEC 60512‑26‑100, test 26e. For the coupling attenuation, see IEC 62153‑4‑12.
