IEC 61300-2-50:2026
IEC 61300-2-50: 2026 describes a test to quantitatively assess the capability of a connector terminating a reinforced cable of any diameter or a buffered fibre, both single-mode and multimode, to withstand static loads without uncoupling of the connector, physical damage to the assembly or permanent degradation of optical performance.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) addition of normative references to Clause 2;
b) addition of the terms and definitions clause;
c) addition of the straight pull test of pulling cap – plug – cable configuration;
d) modification of the test procedure including provisions for hardened connectors;
e) update of the severity of the test according to the component and performance category;
f) addition of the details to be specified and reported clause.
