IEC 61753-1-2020 Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components – Performance standard – Part 1: General and guidance. 4 Abbreviations FMC field mountable connector FMS fibre management system ODFM optical distribution frame module 5 Preparation of a performance standard 5.1 Performance standard title The performance standard title shall be clear. This information shall include – the product description, – the appropriate performance category, and – any other variant or differentiation information to distinguish it from other performance standards. 5.2 Tests The tests to be carried out on the product in order for it to meet the performance standard shall be clearly defined, including those which are product specific. No ambiguity or options shall be allowed. The selected tests combined with the severities/durations, groupings/sequencing, method used and pass/fail criteria shall be indicative of a defined operating service environment. The test method to be used shall be clearly defined for each test. Wherever possible, the test method shall be selected from the IEC 61 300 (all parts), but where this is not possible other test methods may be defined. If an undefined test method is used, the test method and details to be specified shall be included in the appropriate annex of the performance standard. Performance standards may call up additional tests that may be needed to fully characterise a particular connector or component. 5.3 Details The details to be considered (severities and durations) shall be given for all tests and measurements defined in a performance standard. They shall be directly related to the performance requirements defined by the operating service environment. No ambiguity or options are allowed. 5.4 Requirements The performance requirements that shall be satisfied in order for the product to comply with the performance standard shall be specified for each test and/or measurement. No ambiguities are allowed. 5.5 Sample size The sample size for each test shall be defined in the appropriate annex of the performance standard. No deviations are allowed. 5.6 Sample definition The sample to be tested shall be defined in the relevant performance standard. 5.7 Groupings/sequences In general, no sequencing is required and each test is intended to be performed individually. When applicable, test groups and test sequences can be required by the user, user group or manufacturer. 5.8 Pass/fail criteria Where required by the performance category, the pass/fail criteria shall be unambiguously stated for each test within the performance standard. No deviation or exceptions are...
