What is BS EN 4533‑001 about?
BS EN 4533-001 series covers the aerospace fibre optic systems, The purpose of BS EN 4533-001 is to provide information on the use of fibre optic components on aerospace platforms. BS EN 4533-001 also include best practice methods for the through-life support of the installations.
BS EN 4533-001 is one of the parts of a series of documents that specifies the termination of optical fibre cables used in aerospace applications. Termination is the act of installing an optical terminus onto the end of a buffered fibre or fibre optic cable. termini will have specific termination procedures, many shares common elements and these are discussed in BS EN 4533001. Termination is required to form an optical link between any two network or system components or to join fibre optic links together.
Who is BS EN 4533‑00 for?
BS EN 4533001 on aerospace fibre optic systems is applicable to:
- Space Research organizations
- Aerospace manufacturers
- Manufacturers of aerospace components
- Spacecraft manufacturers
- Testing agencies involved in the inspection of aerospace products
Why should you use BS EN 4533001?
Fibre optics in aerospace is considered to be a next generation development. With the application of fibre optics, a lot of high-bandwidth functions could be performed smoothly. It also weighs a lot less than the traditional copper wiring and transfers data faster.
BS EN 4533 document series provides you with information on the use of fibre optic components on aerospace platforms and also include best practice methods for the through-life support of the installations. It also covers the process of termination. Termination is required to form an optical link between any two network or system components or to join fibre optic links together.
BS EN 4533-001 covers all the requirements for the termination of optical fibre cables used in aerospace applications. It creates a standardized approach for the installation of fibre optic components on aerospace platforms to adhere to the quality standards for use in aerospace.
