scope:
This Recommendation explains the requirements for type II optical/electrical hybrid cables (OEHC) for access points (APs) and other terminal equipment that can support data transmission up to and beyond 1 Gbit/s that require remote powering. As classified in [ITU-T L.109], a copper pair in the type II OEHC is not used for telecommunication but for power delivery.
This Recommendation:
- explains the cables that may be installed outdoors, indoors and indoors/outdoors;
- describes the characteristics of type II OEHC;
- provides suggestions for cable construction with optical fibres that comply with [ITU-T G.652], [ITU-T G.657] and [IEC 60793-2-10];
- suggests acceptance criteria and requirements in test methods for type II OEHC; and
- suggests installation requirements for type II OEHC.
