Optical fibre cables - Part 1-1: Generic specification - General

IEC 60794-1-1:2011 applies to optical fibre cables for use with communication equipment and devices employing similar techniques and to cables having a combination of both optical fibres and electrical conductors. The object of this standard is to establish uniform generic requirements for the geometrical, transmission, material, mechanical, ageing (environmental exposure), climatic and electrical properties of optical fibre cables, where appropriate. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:- the contents are updated throughout;- the informative Annexes C "Guide to the installation of optical fibre cables" and D "Guide to hydrogen effects in optical fibre cables" have been deleted from this standard and will be published as separate Technical Reports;- the remaining Annexes are renamed accordingly.This publication is to be read in conjunction with IEC 60794-1-2:2003.The contents of the corrigendum of January 2012 have been included in this copy.

Optical fibre cables - Part 1-1: Generic specification - General

IEC 60794-1-1:2015 applies to optical fibre cables for use with communication equipment and devices employing similar techniques and to cables having a combination of both optical fibres and electrical conductors. The object of this standard is to establish uniform generic requirements for the geometrical, transmission, material, mechanical, ageing (environmental exposure), climatic and electrical properties of optical fibre cables and cable elements, where appropriate. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition, published in 2011. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: - the expansion of the definitions, graphical symbols, terminology and abbreviations content, with the aim of making this standard the default and reference for all others in the IEC 60794-x series; - the inclusion of updated and expanded optical fibre, attenuation and bandwidth sections, with the aim of making this standard the default and reference for all others in the IEC 60794-x series. Keywords: optical fibre cables, cable elements
