BS EN 60512-27-100:2012

What is BS EN 60512-27-100 - Assessing the transmission performance of connectors about? 

BS EN 60512-27-100 specifies the test methods for transmission performance for IEC 60603-7 series connectors up to 500 MHz. It is also suitable for testing lower frequency connectors if they meet the requirements of the detail specifications of BS EN 60512-27-100.

BS EN 60512-27-100 contains test arrangement, test instrumentation, coaxial cables and interconnect for network analysers, measurement precautions, balun requirements, Interfacing,  reference components for calibration, termination loads for termination of conductor pairs, termination of screens, test specimen and reference planes, construction and qualification of TFCs for NEXT, FEXT and return loss etc.

Who is BS EN 60512-27-100 - Assessing the transmission performance of connectors for? 

BS EN 60512-27-100 on assessing the transmission performance of connectors is useful for: 

• Manufacturers of electronic devices
• Maintenance and augmentation teams 
• Companies associated with designing and installation of electronic devices
• Fault management teams
• Quality management teams

Why should you use BS EN 60512-27-100 - Assessing the transmission performance of connectors?

Electronic equipment is used in applications that rely on mechanical or electric systems for their operation. They are essential to any work on electronics systems for creating signals and capturing responses from electronic devices. There are certain specifications regarding the performance of electronic equipment.

BS EN 60512-27-100 walks you through the test methods of measuring the transmission performance of connectors for electronic equipment, These include:

• Insertion loss test
• Return loss
• Near-end crosstalk (NEXT)
• Far-end crosstalk (FEXT)
• Transverse conversion loss
• Transverse conversion transfer loss

The guidelines in BS EN 60512-27-100 help you assess the transmission performance of connectors for electronic equipment that enable you to provide a superior quality product to your customers.
