A list of organizations represented on this subcommittee can be obtained on request to its secretary. From 1 January 1997, all IEC publications have the number 60000 added to the old numb

For a period of time during the change over from one numbering system to the other, publications may contain identifiers from both systems. Cross-references Attention is drawn to the fact that CEN and CENELEC Standards normally include a
7、n annex which lists normative references to international publications with their corresponding European publications.

25、valuate the decrease in optical power expressed in decibels, which results when a patchcord connector set, with like connectors at both ends, is randomly inserted into a length of optical fibre. The measured parameter is the attenuation, sometimes designated as insertion loss of the component. For t
26、his measurement standard reference connector sets are not required. 1.2 General description Two methods are described in the measurement procedure, both based on the use of an optical power meter (an optical detector and associated electronics for processing the signal). They provide an estimate of
27、the expected average performance that a group of patchcords (including adaptor if applicable) selected from a batch will exhibit when placed in a working optical system. Plugs and adaptor should be randomly selected so that the measurement provides a statistically unbiased estimate. Either method ma
28、y be considered as a reference method for the measurement of the attenuation of a random connector assembly formed between two patchcords. 1.2.1 Launch conditions Unless otherwise specified, the launch conditions shall be in accordance with Annex B of IEC 61300-1. It shall be compatible with the com
29、ponent being measured, and shall be specified in the detail specification. NOTEDue to their long coherence length, laser source units create a speckle pattern across the core of a multimode fibre which is unstable and which may render difficult or impossible the task of creating Case 1) or Case 2) l
30、aunch conditions in a multimode component. Consequently, laser sources should be avoided in favour of LEDs or other incoherent source units for measuring multimode components. 1.2.2 Precautions The following test requirements shall be met. 1) The power in the fibre shall not be at a level high enoug
31、h to generate non-linear scattering effects. 2) In multimode measurements a change in modal distribution at the component interface may affect the attenuation measurement. 3) The position of the fibre in the test should be fixed between the measurements of reference power and of power with the conne
32、ctor installed to avoid changes in attenuation due to bending loss. 1.3 Normative reference The following normative document contains provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of IEC 61300. At the time of publication, the edition indicated was valid. All no
33、rmative documents are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this part of IEC 61300 are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent edition of the normative document indicated below.

34、 Standards. IEC 61300-1:1995, Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components Basic test and measurement procedures Part 1: General and guidance. 2 Apparatus 2.1 Source S This unit consists of an optical emitter, its fibre pigtail (if any), and associated drive electronics. It may include
35、 mechanical or electrical modulation of the optical power. It could, for example, be a LED, a laser, or a spectrally broadband source combined with an interface filter or a monochromator. The power output shall be stable within specified limits over the period of time between the measurements of Pi-
36、1 and Pi. The precise characteristics shall be compatible with the measurement requirements, and shall be specified in the detail specification, including: a) power output; b) peak wavelength; c) spectral width; Licensed Copy: sheffieldun sheffieldun, na, Sat Nov 11 12:45:07 GMT+00:00 2006, Uncontro

It may c
38、onsist, for example, of a mode scrambler, an equilibrium mode simulator, such as a long length of fibre or a mode filter (eventually followed by a cladding mode stripper), or some combination of these elements. It shall be compatible with the device being measured, and shall be specified in the deta
39、il specification. 2.2.1 Mode filter If required by the detail specifications, the mode filter for multimode fibres shall consist of five close wound turns on smooth round mandrels which create fibre loop diameters as follows: NOTE 1If cabled fibres are employed, the mandrel diameter should be reduce
40、d by the cable diameter. NOTE 2The above fibre loop diameter values do not necessarily create equilibrium mode power distribution. If required by the relevant specification, a mode filter should be used in single-mode measurements between the temporary joint and the patchcord under test, and before
41、the detector. The objective of the mode filter in single-mode measurement is to remove all of the optical energy not in the primary mode. In general, a 2 m long fibre with two loops with a diameter of about 50 mm will serve as a mode filter. Details of the mode filters should be specified in the det
42、ail specification. NOTE 3The mode filters are not necessary if the fibre used between the temporary joint and the patchcord under test and those in the patchcord itself are sufficiently long for higher order modes to be highly attenuated, e.g. if both fibres are standard single-mode fibres and they
43、are longer than 2 m or if the measurements are carried out at 1 550 nm, higher order modes are certainly absent. 2.2.2 Cladding mode stripper If the cabled fibre coating has an index of refraction lower than that of the cladding, cladding mode strippers shall be placed both after the source and befo
44、re the detector. If a mode filter is used, the input cladding mode stripper shall be placed in series following the mode filter. Often the fibre coating is sufficient to perform the function of a cladding mode stripper. 2.3 Detector D This unit consists of an optical detector, the mechanism for conn
45、ecting to it, and associated detection electronics. It may include phase-sensitive detection of a mechanically or electrically modulated source unit. The connection to the detector will be with a receptacle that accepts a connector plug of the appropriate design compatible with the connector under t
46、est. The measurement sensitivity shall be stable within specified limits over the period of time required to measure the reference power and the power with the connector installed. Moreover, the change in the coupling efficiency between the fibre and the detector shall be minimized when a plug is re
47、placed with another plug. For that reason, a wide sensitive area detector shall be used. The precise characteristics of the detector shall be compatible with the measurement requirements. The following features of the detector shall be specified in the detail specification: a) maximum sensitivity; b
48、) linearity; c) wavelength of the maximum sensitivity; d) range of wavelength sensitivity; e) stability; f) pigtail fibre type (if any); g) fibre to detector connection.

It may, for example, be a precision V-groove vacuum chuck, micromanipulator, or a fusion or mechanical splice. The temporary joint shall be stable to within specified limits over the time required to measure the reference power and power with the connector installed. A suitable refractive index matching materi
