IEC 61978-1 Ed. 3.0 b – Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components – Fibre optic passive chromatic dispersion compensators – Part 1: Generic specification

IEC 61978-1:2014 applies to fibre optic passive chromatic dispersion compensators, all exhibiting the following features:
– they are optically passive;
– they have an optical input and an optical output for transmitting optical power;
– the ports are optical fibres or optical fibre connectors;
– they are wavelength sensitive;
– they may be polarization sensitive. This standard establishes uniform requirements for the passive chromatic dispersion compensator. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition, published in 2009, and constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
– introduction of new terms and definitions;
– revision of classifications;
– addition of Annex E. Keywords: fibre optic passive chromatic dispersion compensators
