What is BS EN 62150-2 - Fibre optic active components and devices about?
BS EN 62150 is a series on fibre optic active components and devices. Fibre optic active components and devices are made up of semiconductor materials that actively manipulate electrons to perform the intended function. BS EN 62150-2 specifies testing and measuring procedures for fibre optic transceivers for asynchronous-transfer-mode passive optical network (ATM-PON) systems recommended by ITU-T G.983.1. These testing procedures correspond to methods of examining whether the transceivers satisfy the performance specifications defined in IEC 62149-5. On the other hand, the measuring procedures correspond to methods of precise measurement for such transceivers. The receiver sections of these transceivers can handle burst signals. Therefore, some procedures described in BS EN 62150-2 correspond to the burst signal transmission.

Why should you use BS EN 62150-2 - Fibre optic active components and devices?
Fibre optic active components and devices require a source of energy to operate and have an output that is a function of present and past input signals. BS EN 62150-2 specifies testing and measuring procedures for optoelectronic properties of asynchronous-transfer-mode passive optical network transceivers. The package interface dimensions, and optoelectronic performance of the transceivers are defined in IEC 62148-6 and IEC 62149-5, respectively. Standard ambient conditions need to be controlled within some range to ensure proper correlation of data obtained from measurements and tests conducted in various facilities. Test and measurement procedures are conducted under ambient conditions as described in BS EN 62150-2 unless otherwise specified. In some cases, special ambient conditions may be needed. Such conditions can be specified in BS EN 62150-2.
The alarm output voltage is changed from high to low when the incident optical signal power is below the threshold value (PTH: –30 dBm for class B transceiver, –33 dBm for class C transceiver). BS EN 62150-2 defines the testing and measuring procedures for the Rx alarm function of the asynchronous-transfer-mode passive optical network transceiver. BS EN 62150-2 also defines the testing procedures for the Tx shutdown function of the asynchronous-transfer-mode passive optical network transceiver in which output optical power is decreased to be less than launched optical power without input signal or PSH (–40 dBm for class B transceivers, –43 dBm for class C transceivers) when the applied high-level voltage of the shutdown terminal is changed to low-level. testing and measuring procedures for the mean launched power of the asynchronous-transfer-mode passive optical network transceiver, testing and measuring procedures for the centroidal wavelength (lave) and spectral width of the asynchronous-transfer-mode passive optical network transceiver, testing and measuring procedures for the extinction ratio and mask test of the asynchronous-transfer-mode passive optical network transceiver and the testing and measuring procedures for the receiver sensitivity (S: –30 dBm for class B modules, –33 dBm for class C modules) and receiver overload (SO:–8 dBm for class B modules, –11 dBm for class C modules) of the ATM-PON transceiver is also defined in BS EN 62150-2. Using BS EN 62150-2 you can specify testing and measuring procedures for fibre optic transceivers for asynchronous-transfer-mode passive optical network systems.
