Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components performance standard - Part 2-3: Non-connectorised single-mode 1×N and 2×N non-wavelength-selective branching devices for category U; Uncontrolled environment
This part of IEC 61753 contains the minimum initialisation test and measurement require-ments and severities which a branching device shall satisfy in order to be categorised as meeting the IEC standard. The requirements cover balanced non-connectorised single-mode 1×N and 2×N non-wavelength-selective branching devices for use in an IEC Category U environment (N is the number of output ports). The specifications of unbalanced branching devices are limited to 1×2 and 2×2 devices because they are the most commonly used.
