What is BS EN 62148-16 – Fibre optic LC connector interface about?
BS EN 62148-16 is an international standard that discusses the uses of transmitter and receiver components.
BS EN 62148-16 covers the physical interface specification of transmitter and receiver components for use with the LC connector interface.
BS EN 62148-16 specifies the physical requirements of an optical transmitter and receiver that enables mechanical interchangeability of transmitters complying with BS EN 62148-16 both at the PCB and for any panel-mounting requirement.
Who is BS EN 62148-16 – Fibre optic LC connector interface for?
BS EN 62148-16 on transmitter and receiver components for use with LC connector interface is relevant to:
- Manufacturers of fibre optic active components and devices
- Manufacturers of transmitter and receiver components
- Manufacturers of LC connector interface
- Electrical engineers
- Fibre optic technicians
- Fibre optic installers
- Testing authorities
Why should you use BS EN 62148-16 – Fibre optic LC connector interface?
Due to the rapid growth in data and information, fibre optic interconnections are proved to be very useful for clock distribution and communication between different parts of electronic computers. There have been raised demands for wider bandwidth in communication systems and higher performance in IT/NW equipment. Compact optical sub-assembly (OSA) modules for 10 Gbit/s are used to convert electrical signals into optical signals and vice-versa.
BS EN 62148-16 specifies the physical requirements of an optical transmitter and receiver that enables mechanical interchangeability of transmitters that are in compliance with global standards for both, at the PCB and for any panel-mounting requirement.
BS EN 62148-16 covers the physical interface for 10- Gbit/s compact OSA modules. These modules are designed for use with the LC fibre optic connector and are intended to be applied to XFP modules.
The components specified by the BS EN 62148-16 comply with suitable requirements for electromagnetic compatibility (in terms of both, emission, and immunity), depending on the usage/environment in which they are intended to be installed or integrated.
The intent of BS EN 62148-16 is to specify the physical requirements of a TOSA and ROSA modules that enable mechanical interchangeability of modules complying with this specification both for the PCB and for any panel mounting requirement.
By applying, BS EN 62148-16 you can learn about the transmitter and receiver components for use with the LC connector interface fibre optic active components and devices, which can be beneficial for your business and can also help you to expand your business globally.
