Full title and description

St IEC 61314-1-1:2011 — Fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components — Fibre optic fan-outs — Part 1-1: Blank detail specification. This publication provides a blank worksheet and instructions to prepare detail (product-specific) specifications that complement the generic requirements given in IEC 61314-1. It is intended as a template for manufacturers, purchasers and evaluators of fibre‑optic fan‑outs.

Abstract

IEC 61314-1-1:2011 is the third edition of the blank detail specification for fibre‑optic fan‑outs. It does not itself provide test procedures but supplies a standardized worksheet and guidance for preparing product‑specific detail specifications linked to the generic requirements in IEC 61314‑1. The 2011 revision updated guidance on quality approval and conformance inspection and incorporated references to relevant mechanical and optical interface standards into the worksheet.

Scope

This document provides a blank detail specification (a template and explanatory notes) for use with the generic specification IEC 61314‑1 for fibre‑optic fan‑outs. It is not a standalone technical specification; rather, it is a formatted worksheet to record product‑specific requirements such as optical interfaces, mechanical interfaces, materials, marking, packaging, quality approval and conformance inspection criteria. Test and measurement methods are not included in this part and remain covered by the IEC 61300 series and the referenced interface/performance standards.

Key topics and requirements

• Blank worksheet for preparing product detail specifications (fields and instructions)
• Guidance on recording mechanical and optical interfaces for fan-outs
• Requirements and formats for stating quality approval and quality conformance inspection
• References and linkage to related connector, interface and performance standards to ensure compatibility
• Clarification that test procedures are handled by IEC 61300 series, not by this template
• Intended to be used together with IEC 61314‑1 (generic specification)

Typical use and users

Manufacturers of fibre‑optic fan‑outs and related passive components, procurement and specification engineers, quality and conformity assessment teams, suppliers and purchasers of fibre‑optic assemblies, and standards committees preparing or harmonizing product detail specifications. The worksheet helps ensure consistent, complete product requirements when placing orders, performing design reviews or carrying out quality acceptance checks.

Related standards

IEC 61314‑1 (Fibre optic fan‑outs — Generic specification); IEC 61300 series (test and measurement procedures for fibre‑optic interconnecting devices and passive components); standards covering connector and interface families such as IEC 60874, IEC 61754 and performance/qualification standards such as IEC 61753. National/adopted versions (for example EN/ national editions) reproduce IEC 61314‑1‑1 content for regional application.
