Standard Details

IEC 60794-2:2017 is a sectional specification. It gives the requirements that apply to optical fibre cables for indoor use in communications networks.

- the document structure has been aligned with IEC 60794-3, and Clause 4 on optical fibres was added;
- transmission requirements in Clause 4 were added;
- the electrical conductors and the lay-up of the cable elements were introduced into Article 5 on cable elements and construction;
- 5.13 on identification was separated in fibre, unit and sheath colour coding;
- the colour coding proposals were extended to accommodate latest fibre categories;
- Article 6 on installation and operating condition was added;
