| Title | Fibre organisers and closures to be used in optical fibre communication systems - Product specifications - Part 2-3: Sealed inline fibre splice closures Type 1, for category S & A |
| Project Number | 23049 |
| Abstract/Scope | 1.1 Product definition This specification contains the initial, start of life dimensional, optical, mechanical and environmental performance requirements of a fully installed splice closure in order for it to be categorised as an EN standard product. 1.2 Operating environment The tests selected combined with the severity and duration is representative of outside plant for subterranean and/or aerial environments defined by: ETSI EN 300 019-1-4 class 8.1: underground locations (without earthquake requirement) EN 61753-1 category S: subterranean environment category A: aerial environment 1.3 Reliability Whilst the anticipated service life expectancy of the product in this environment is 20 years, compliance with this specification does not guarantee the reliability of the product. This should be predicted using a recognised reliability assessment programme. 1.4 Quality assurance Compliance with this specification does not guarantee the manufacturing consistency of the product. This should be maintained using a recognised quality assurance programme. 1.5 Allowed fibre and cable types Although the performance tests are carried out on test samples with dispersion un-shifted singlemode fibre (see Annex A), the closure, once tested according to this product specification, will be also suited for other fibre types like dispersion shifted, non-zero dispersion shifted and multimode fibres. This closure standard allows both singlemode and multimode fibre to be used and covers all EN standard optical fibre cables with their various fibre capacities, types and designs. This includes, but is not limited to, optical fibre cable standards EN 60794-2 (indoor), EN 60794-3 (outdoor). |

| Normative reference (6) |
(1) Date of ratification (dor) date when the Technical Board notes the approval of an EN (and HD for CENELEC), from which time the standard may be said to be approved
(2) Date of availability (dav) date when the definitive text in the official language versions of an approved CEN/CENELEC publication is distributed by the Central Secretariat
(3) Date of announcement (doa) latest date by which the existence of an EN (and HD for CENELEC), a TS or a CWA has to be announced at national level
(4) Date of publication (dop) latest date by which an EN has to be implemented at national level by publication of an identical national standard or by endorsement
(5) Date of withdrawal (dow) latest date by which national standards conflicting with an EN (and HD for CENELEC) have to be withdrawn
(6) This list of normative references is purely indicative. The only official list of normative reference is the list of the published standard.
