What is BS EN 60603-7-5 - Detail specifications for connectors about?
Electrical connectors are used to join electrical conductors to create an electrical circuit. BS EN 60603-7-5 is a part of an international multi-series standard that focuses on aspects of connectors for electronic equipment.
BS EN 60603-7-5 covers IEC 60603-7-5 connectors and specifies mechanical and environmental requirements and electrical transmission requirements for frequencies up to 250 MHz .These connectors are typically used as category 6 connectors in class E cabling systems specified in ISO/IEC 11801:2002. These connectors are intermate able, interoperable, and backwards compatible with other IEC 60603-7 series connectors. While the definition of interoperable is being discussed within IEC, “interoperable” in BS EN 60603-7-5 means the fixed and the free connector are capable of interconnecting with any IEC 60603-7 series connector, and when it is interconnected, it fully meets all requirements of the lower frequency IEC 60603-7 series standard.
Note: In BS EN 60603-7-5 the term “category”, when used in reference to transmission performance, refers to those categories defined by ISO/IEC 11801:2002.
