Anotation

IEC 61300-2-33:2026 evaluates the behaviour of a fibre optic mechanical splice, a fibre management system, a protective housing or a hardened connector after being subjected to a specified number of assembly and disassembly operations. The test procedures described in this document simulate conditions that the component can encounter during its service lifetime to check the following performance characteristics: - capability of an optical mechanical splice to be reinstalled after being disassembled; - capability to reintroduce fibre management systems and protective housings, accessing fibres and optical components and making reconfigurations without disturbing transmission in adjacent fibre circuits; - sealing performance of the protective housing after frequent opening and closing operations; - sealing performance of the hardened connector after frequent mating and demating operations. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2012. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) update of the terms and definitions according to IEC 61753-1:2018 and IEC 61756-1:2019; b) update of the test severities according to the new edition of IEC 61753-1:2018; c) addition of procedure D to verify the sealing performance after frequent mating and demating of a hardened connector. L’IEC 61300-2-33:2026 permet d’evaluer le comportement d’une epissure mecanique fibronique, d’un systeme de gestion des fibres, d’un boitier de protection ou d’un connecteur renforce, apres avoir ete soumis a un nombre specifie doperations de montage et de demontage. Les procedures dessai decrites dans le present document simulent les conditions que le composant peut rencontrer au cours de sa duree de vie afin de verifier les caracteristiques de performance suivantes: - la capacite d’une epissure mecanique optique a etre reinstallee apres avoir ete demontee; - la capacite a reintroduire des systemes de gestion de fibres et des boitiers de protection, en accedant aux fibres et composants optiques et en realisant de nouvelles configurations sans perturber la transmission dans les circuits de fibres adjacents; - la performance detancheite du boitier de protection apres des operations frequentes douverture et de fermeture; - la performance detancheite du connecteur renforce apres des operations frequentes daccouplement et de desaccouplement. Cette quatrieme edition annule et remplace la troisieme edition parue en 2012. Elle constitue une revision technique. Cette edition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport a ledition precedente: a) mise a jour des termes et definitions conformement a l’IEC 61753-1:2018 et a l’IEC 61756-1:2019; b) mise a jour des severites d’essai conformement a la nouvelle edition de l’IEC 61753-1:2018; c) ajout de la procedure D pour la verification de la performance d’etancheite apres accouplements et desaccouplements frequents d’un connecteur renforce.
