What is BS EN IEC 60794‑6‑10 about?
BS EN IEC 60794 is a series on optical fibre cables. BS EN IEC 60794‑6‑10 is a family specification covering features of optical fibre cables applicable to outdoor as well as indoor environments, called "universal indoor-outdoor cables".
The cables specified in BS EN IEC 60794‑6‑10 generally possess the characteristics associated with outdoor cable designs (according to IEC 60794-3, however typically less stringent, and typically "non-armoured") having the thermal and mechanical robustness that makes them suitable for use in the outside plant, while simultaneously being flexible enough, compact and lightweight and exhibiting the fire performance required in indoor premises.
Who is BS EN IEC 60794‑6‑10 for?
BS EN IEC 60794‑6‑10 on optical fibre cables is useful for:
- Telecommunication companies
- IT companies
- Computer networking sectors
- Residential sectors
- Automotive industries
Why should you use BS EN IEC 60794‑6‑10?
Optical fibres cables are very thin strands of pure glass, which transmit information in the form of light. BS EN IEC 60794‑6‑10 defines the universal indoor-outdoor cables that are suitable for use in the outside, while simultaneously being flexible enough, compact and lightweight and exhibiting the fire performance required in indoor premises.
A typical application of indoor-outdoor cables, for example, centralized cabling in a central office and the premises or local area network where the same cable design is used for the entire length of the cabling link, including both the indoor as well as outdoor portions.
BS EN IEC 60794‑6‑10 implementation can help you to establish a transmission line capable of transmitting more data over longer distances, and at greater speeds than other mediums.
