BS EN IEC 61300-2-43:2022

Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components. Basic test and measurement procedures. Tests. Screen testing of return loss of single-mode PC optical fibre connectors | Status: Current

1 Scope This part of IEC 61300 aims at screening single-mode physical contact (PC) optical fibre connector plugs of an optical fibre patch cord or an optical fibre pigtail in terms of return loss, thus ensuring minimum return loss when the connector plugs are randomly mated with each other in the field. This document is intended to apply to cylindrical ferrule connector plugs.
