Optical fibre cables. Generic specification. Basic optical cable test procedures. Environmental test methods | Status: Superseded, Withdrawn

1 Scope This part of IEC 60794 defines test procedures to be used in establishing uniform requirements for the environmental performance of

• • optical fibre cables for use with telecommunication equipment and devices employing similar techniques, and
• • cables having a combination of both optical fibres and electrical conductors.

Throughout this document, the wording "optical cable" can also include optical fibre units, microduct fibre units, etc. See IEC 60794‑1‑2 for a reference guide to test methods of all types and for general requirements and definitions.
