This part of IEC 60869 applies to fibre optic power control devices. These have all of the following general features:

  • they are passive in that they contain no opto-electronic or other transducing elements;

  • they have two ports for the transmission of optical power and control the transmitted power in a fixed or variable fashion;

  • the ports are unconnectorized optical fibre tails or optical fibre pigtails with connectors.

This standard establishes generic requirements for the following passive optical devices:

  • optical attenuator;

  • optical fuse;

  • optical power limiter.

Test and measurement procedures for the above products are described in IEC 61300-1, the IEC 61300-2 series and the 61300-3 series [1,2,3] 1.
