What is BS EN IEC 61753‑061‑2 about?
BS EN IEC 6175 is a series that discusses fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components. BS EN IEC 61753‑061‑2 contains the minimum test and measurement requirements and severities that a fibre optic isolator satisfies in order to be categorized as meeting the requirements of isolators used in controlled environments as specified.
Who is BS EN IEC 61753‑061‑2 for?
BS EN IEC 61753‑061‑2 on fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components is useful for:
- Telecommunication equipment manufacturers
- Design engineers
Why should you use BS EN IEC 61753‑061‑2?
Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components construct a point-to-multipoint topology in which a single optical fibre serves multiple endpoints by using unpowered (passive) fibre optic splitters to divide the fibre bandwidth among the endpoints. BS EN IEC 61753‑061‑2 defines the test methods for calculating pigtailed style polarization of independent isolators for category C.
BS EN IEC 61753‑061‑2 provides information on independent isolators for category C which can be beneficial for the transmission line as it reduces the amount of fibre and central office equipment required compared with point-to-point architectures. A passive optical network is a form of the fibre-optic access network. Using the test method to calculate pigtailed style polarization given in BS EN IEC 61753‑061‑2 you can maintain the polarization of your cable.
