This European Standard specifies the electrical test methods for cables used in analogue and digital communication systems.

Part 1 of EN 50289 consists of the following documents:

  • Part 1-1 General requirements

  • Part 1-2 DC resistance

  • Part 1-3 Dielectric strength

  • Part 1-4 Insulation resistance

  • Part 1-5 Capacitance

  • Part 1-6 Electromagnetic performance

  • Part 1-7 Velocity of propagation

  • Part 1-8 Attenuation

  • Part 1-9 Unbalance attenuation (longitudinal conversation loss, longitudinal conversion transfer loss)

  • Part 1-10 Crosstalk

  • Part 1-11 Characteristic impedance, input impedance, return loss

  • Part 1-12 Inductance

  • Part 1-13 Coupling attenuation or screening attenuation of patch cords / coaxial cable assemblies / pre-connectorised cables

  • Part 1-14 Coupling attenuation or screening attenuation of connecting hardware

  • Part 1-15 Coupling attenuation of links and channels (Laboratory conditions)

  • Part 1-16 Coupling attenuation of cable assemblies (Field conditions)

  • Part 1-17 Exogenous Crosstalk ExNEXT and ExFEXT

Further test details (e.g. temperature, duration) and/or test requirements are given in the relevant cable standard.
