BS EN 61753 is a series on fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components. Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components is a fibre optic telecommunications technology for delivering broadband network access to end customers. BS EN 61753-089-2 contains the minimum initial performance, test and measurement requirements and severities that a fibre optic pigtailed wide wavelength division multiplexing (WWDM) device for monitoring passive optical networks (PON) using an optical time-domain reflectometer (OTDR) satisfies in order to be categorized as meeting the requirements of category C (controlled environments).
BS EN 61753-089-2 on fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components is useful for:
Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components architecture implement a point-to-multipoint topology in which a single optical fibre serves multiple endpoints by using unpowered (passive) fibre optic splitters to divide the fibre bandwidth among the endpoints. BS EN 61753-089-2 defines the tests; each test defines the number of samples to be evaluated. The samples used for each test are intended to be previously unstressed new samples but may also be selected from previously used samples if desired. The samples have pigtails of single-mode fibres as per IEC 60793-2-50, category B 1.1, B 1.3, or B 6 in either coated fibres (primary and secondary) or reinforced cable format. All measurements are carried out in a standard atmosphere a condition defined in IEC 61300-1 unless otherwise stated.
BS EN 61753-089-2 also specifies OTDRs that are outside the PON’s working wavelength range are used for physical monitoring of the network lines. The OTDR monitoring WWDM is used inside the PON for combining and separating the traffic signals and the OTDR signals at the central office (CO) near the optical line terminal (OLT) as shown in BS EN 61753-089-2. The OTDR monitoring WWDM can also be used inside the PON for combining and separating the traffic signals and the OTDR signals at the premises near the optical network unit (ONU) on the customer side. Using BS EN 61753-089-2 you can understand the minimum initial performance, test and measurement requirements and severities that a fibre optic pigtailed wide wavelength division multiplexing (WWDM) device for monitoring passive optical networks (PON) using an optical time-domain reflectometer (OTDR).
