scope:

This part of IEC 62149 defines performance specifications for 1 300 nm fibre optic transceiver modules used for the ISO/IEC/IEEE 8802-3 Gigabit Ethernet application. This document contains definitions for product performance requirements as well as a series of tests and measurements, for which clearly defined conditions, severities and pass/fail criteria are provided. The tests are intended to be run on a "once-off" basis to prove any product's ability to satisfy the performance standard's requirements.

A product that has been shown to meet all the requirements of a performance standard can be declared as complying with the performance standard but will then be controlled by a quality assurance/quality conformance program.
