What is BS EN 50377-6-2- B1.1 and B1.3 singlemode fibre, category U about?
BS EN 50377-6-2 is an International Standard that discusses the B1.1 and B1.3 singlemode fibre, category U.
BS EN 50377-6-2 contains the initial, start of life dimensional, optical, mechanical, and environmental performance requirements which a connector terminated with cylindrical zirconia PC ferrules and assembled single-mode resilient alignment sleeve SC-RJ connector set (plug/adaptor/plug), adaptor, and atch cord meet for it to be categorised as an EN standard product.
Since different variants and grades of performance are permitted, product marking details are given in BS EN 50377-6-2.
Who is BS EN 50377-6-2 - B1.1 and B1.3 singlemode fibre, category U for?
BS EN 50377-6-2 on B1.1 and B1.3 singlemode fibre, category U is useful for:
- Telecommunication component manufacturers
- Telecommunication equipment manufacturers
- Product design engineers / innovation teams
- Quality control personnel
- Optical fibre technicians
- Testing authorities
Why should you use BS EN 50377-6-2 - B1.1 and B1.3 singlemode fibre, category U?
The SC-RJ connector is a duplex plug connector set of plug/adaptor/plug configuration characterised by two cylindrical, spring-loaded butting ferrules of 2,5 mm nominal diameter and a push-pull coupling mechanism.
BS EN 50377-6-2 specifies the plug features which consist of two cylindrical full zirconia ferrules and a push-pull coupling mechanism. BS EN 50377-6-2 assists with the adaptor that consists of two zirconia ceramic resilient alignment sleeves and two push-pull coupling mechanisms, one for each sleeve.
BS EN 50377-6-2 provides guidance on the SC-RJ single-mode terminated category B1.1 and B1.3 single mode fibre, category U for connector sets and interconnect components to be used in optical fibre communication systems, which helps users have smoother connectivity.
