scope:

This part of IEC 61753 contains the minimum initial test andmeasurement requirements and severities which aGaussian-passband-profile cyclic arrayed waveguide grating (AWG)for single-mode and bidirectional transmission systems satisfies inorder to be categorised as meeting the requirements of IEC 61753-1for category C (controlled environment). This standard pertains towavelength division multiplexing (WDM) network with multiplespectralband usage. This standard covers the requirements of cyclicAWG devices with free spectral range (FSR) characteristics toensure multiple spectral bands transmission performance, withsingle-mode non-connectorised pigtails and no electric circuitboard.
