What is BS EN 4641-106 - Fibre optic cable about ?
BS EN 4641-106 is a European Standard that specifies the general characteristics, conditions for qualification, acceptance and quality assurance for a fibre optic cable with a 62,5/125 µm, MM fibre core, and 900 µm outside cable diameter and of semi-loose buffer construction for “inside avionics box” equipment fibre harnessing.
Who is BS EN 4641-106 - Fibre optic cable for ?
BS EN 4641-106 on fibre optic cable is useful for:
- Aerospace avionic and fibre optic technology
- Spacecraft and space products manufacturers
- Aerospace and defence industries
- Design engineers for optical cables
- Quality control personnel for spacecraft products
- Manufacturers of optical cables
Why should you use BS EN 4641-106 - Fibre optic cable ?
Fibre optic cables are cables that contain several thousands of optical fibres in a protective, insulated jacket. The optical fibres are very thin strands of pure glass, which transmit information in the form of light.
The cladding is a special coating that keeps the light from escaping the glass core. 62,5/125 fiber optic cables are multimode fiber cables. It is widely used in outdoor cables that are usually used as backbones in the fiber optic network, and it also is used in indoor cables like patch cord assemblies. BS EN 4641-106 provides detailed specifications about the characteristics and performance requirements as well as test methods of fibre optic cables.
With the high level of data security required in military and aerospace applications, fibre optic cables offer the ideal solution for data transmission in these areas. Hence as a manufacturer, you can use BS EN 4641-106 guidelines to improve the production of applications involving fibre optic cable.
By adopting BS EN 4641-106 guidance, you can manufacture best quality optical cable.
