IEC 61300-2-2:2026 RLV contains both the official IEC International Standard and its Redline version. The Redline version is available in English only and provides you with a quick and easy way to compare all the changes between the official IEC Standard and its previous edition.
IEC 61300-2-2:2026 evaluates the effects of a number of successive cycles of mating and un-mating of fibre optic connectors or other interconnecting devices on optical performance and mechanical degradation of the component under normal usage conditions.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) definition of the mating durability test also for a plug-receptacle configuration of the device under test (DUT);
b) deletion of measurement condition B;
c) definition of a unique measurement condition;
d) addition of performance categories in the severities;
e) introduction of new severity levels for connectors and hardened connectors;
f) definition of new cleaning criteria during mating durability test;
g) deletion of performance category E in the severities.
