Overview
This part of IEC 60794 is a detail specification and specifies indoor multiple multi-fibre unit cables for use in MPO (multi-fibre push on) connector terminated breakout cable assemblies. The standard is part of a series of detail specifications that DIN EN IEC 60794-2 specifies in detail. It contains specifications for the fiber optic cables mentioned in the title, some of which are derived from other standards for similar cables or refer to them. Of particular note are the specifications for mechanical and environmental tests and tests on cable elements. There are no restrictions on the scope of application of the document. The standard increases investment security for manufacturers and users, provides test laboratories and manufacturers with defined test specifications, and ensures compatibility across manufacturers.
