BS EN IEC 61300-2-44:2024

This standard BS EN IEC 61300-2-44:2024 Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components. Basic test and measurement procedures is classified in these ICS categories:

• 33.180.20 Fibre optic interconnecting devices

IEC 61300-2-44:2024 specifies a test to determine the influence of flexing under tensile load of the strain relief of fibre optic interconnecting devices or components. The intention is to simulate the number of flexing cycles which would typically be experienced during service life. This test is applied to both single fibre cable and multiple fibre cable. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2013. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) replaced active monitoring with transient loss for measurements during test; b) harmonized recommended severities according to IEC 61753-1.
