Technical Standards for Optical Communication Equipment

Technical Standards for Optical Communication Equipment

IEC Technical Committee 86 prepares International Standards for fibre optic systems, modules, devices and components intended for use with communications equipment. In particular, publications cover the area of tests, measurements and calibration ISO/IEC 17025 is a guide published by ISO. SG 15 is the focal point in ITU T for the development of standards on optical and other transport network infrastructures, systems, equipment, optical fibres, and the corresponding control plane technologies to enable the evolution toward intelligent transport networks. This standard addresses hazards and provides guidance for the safe use, maintenance, service, and installation (manufacturer) of optical communications systems (OCS) utilizing laser diodes or light emitting diodes (LED) operating at wavelengths between 0.
