IEC 62005-9-1 Ed. 1.0 b – Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components – Reliability – Part 9-1: Qualification of passive optical components

IEC 62005-9-1:2015 establishes a general reliability qualification program that applies to all passive fibre optic components except connectors and connector assemblies, the passing of which, suggests a minimum level of reliability assurance and allows that specific device to be called qualified to this standard. The objectives of this International Standard are as follows:
– to specify the requirements for a general reliability qualification standard (RQS) for passive optical components;
– to give direction to the supplier and to the end user on the production andpurchase of passive optical components to meet and verify reliability qualification standards for certain specified service environments;
– to give the minimum list of reliability qualification stress tests and conditions;
– to establish guidance for the selection of appropriate measurements and pass/fail criteria;
– to give relevant references;
– and to establish the minimum reporting requirements. This standard defines a series of stress tests, their severity, sequences, quantities of devices under the test (DUT), acceptance criteria, and reporting requirements. It also gives guidelines to selecting appropriate measurements and pass/fail criteria. Keywords: reliability qualification standard (RQS) for passive optical components
