What is BS EN IEC 60793‑1‑47 - Optical fibre microbending loss measurement about?
IEC 60793 series discusses standards for optical fibres. BS EN IEC 60793‑1‑47 focuses on measurement methods and test procedures for transmission and optical characteristics.
BS EN IEC 60793‑1‑47 establishes uniform requirements for measuring the macrobending loss of single-mode fibres (class B) at 1 550 nm or 1 625 nm, category A1 multimode fibres at 850 nm or 1 300 nm, and category A3 and A4 multimode fibres at 650 nm, 850 nm or 1300 nm, thereby assisting in the inspection of fibres and cables for commercial purposes.
