IEC EN 61754-9 Fiber Optic Connector Interfaces - Standard Test for the DS Type Connector Family

The main connector for the DS type connector family is a single-position plug connector characterized by a cylindrical, spring-loaded ferrule with a nominal ferrule diameter of 2,5 mm. The optical alignment mechanism of the connectors is either a rigid hole or flexible sleeve style and is self-contained within the jack connector.

The DS type connector family is a set of connectors consisting of a plug and jack configuration and is often used as a plug-in type backplane connector. The plug is held in a backplane connector housing mounted on a backplane. The jack is held in a printed card holder which is fixed to a printed card. The plug mates to the jack by inserting the printed circuit board into the rear panel.

IEC EN 61754-9 is a standard that specifies the Type DS fiber optic connector family. This standard defines the mechanical dimensions, optical requirements and test procedures for Type DS connectors.

Type DS connectors are duplex singlemode and multimode fiber optic connectors used in telecommunications, data communications and industrial applications. They are often used in fiber optic patch panels, distribution frames and equipment interfaces.

The Type DS connector family includes three connector types: Type DS, Type DSM, and Type DSS. Type DS connectors have a rectangular shape and are suitable for panel mounting. Type DSM connectors are similar to Type DS connectors but have a smaller footprint, making them ideal for high-density applications. Type DSS connectors have a circular shape and are designed for field termination.

IEC EN 61754-9 defines the physical properties of Type DS connectors, including dimensions, tolerances and materials. It also specifies optical performance requirements for Type DS connectors, including insertion loss, return loss, and durability. In addition, the standard provides guidance on testing procedures to ensure Type DS connectors comply with the standard's requirements.

Overall, the IEC EN 61754-9 standard plays an important role in ensuring the compatibility and reliability of Type DS fiber optic connectors. It provides a common set of specifications that manufacturers can use to design and test their connectors, and helps ensure that end users can safely use Type DS connectors in their fiber optic systems.
