A newer publication replaces it: BSI BS EN IEC 61300-3-35
Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components. Basic test and measurement procedures -- Examinations and measurements. Visual inspection of fibre optic connectors and fibre-stub transceivers
This part of IEC 61300 describes methods for *quantitatively assessing the end face quality* of a polished fibre optic connector or of a fibre optic transceiver using a fibre-stub type interface.
Sub-surface cracks and fractures are not considered in this standard.
In general, the methods described in this standard apply to 125 µm cladding fibres contained within a ferrule and intended for use with sources of ≤ 2 W of input power. However, portions are applicable to non-ferruled connectors and other fibre types. Those portions are identified where appropriate.
It is not the intention of this standard that the size of scratches should be measured; the dimensions and requirements are selected such that they can be estimated. There is no need to measure, for example, if a scratch is 2,3 µm wide.
