IEC - 60794-1-1

Optical fibre cables – Part 1-1: Generic specification – General

active, Most Current
Organization: IEC
Publication Date: 1 May 2023
Status: active
Page Count: 70
ICS Code (Fibres and cables): 33.180.10
scope:

This part of IEC 60794 applies to optical fibre cables for use with communication equipment and devices employing similar techniques. Electrical properties are specified for optical ground wire (OPGW) and optical phase conductor (OPPC) cables. Hybrid communication cables are specified in the IEC 62807 series.

The object of this document is to establish uniform generic requirements for the geometrical, transmission, material, mechanical, ageing (environmental exposure), climatic and electrical properties of optical fibre cables and cable elements, where appropriate.
