FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 61753-086-2 has been prepared by subcommittee 86B: Fibre optic
interconnecting devices and passive components, of IEC technical committee 86: Fibre optics.
This bilingual version (2015-12) corresponds to the monolingual English version, published in

This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
A list of all parts of IEC 61753 series, under the general title Fibre optic interconnecting
devices and passive components performance standard, can be found on the IEC website.
The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until
the maintenance result date indicated on the IEC web site under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in
the data related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,
• replaced by a revised edition, or

Controlled environment
1 Scope
This part of IEC 61753 contains the minimum initial performance, test and measurement
requirements and severities which a fibre optic pigtailed 1 490 / 1 550 nm downstream and
1 310 nm upstream wide wavelength division multiplexing (WWDM) passive optical network
(PON) device must satisfy in order to be categorized as meeting the requirements of category
C (controlled environments), as defined in Annex A of IEC 61753-1.
Annex B of this standard provides information concerning the function of the 1 490 / 1 550 nm
downstream and 1 310 nm upstream WWDM.

3 Test
Unless otherwise specified, all test methods are in accordance with the relevant part of
IEC 61300 series.
Each test defines the number of samples to be evaluated. The samples used for each test are
intended to be previously unstressed new samples but may also be selected from previously
used samples if desired. The samples shall be terminated onto single-mode fibres as per
IEC 60793-2-50, Type B 1.1, in either coated fibres (primary and secondary) or reinforced
cable format. All measurements shall be carried out at normal room conditions, unless
otherwise stated.
All tests shall be carried out over the optical wavelength bands of 1 260 nm to 1 360 nm,
1 480 nm to 1 500 nm, and 1 550 nm to 1 560 nm, unless otherwise specified.
NOTE 1 310 nm, 1 490 nm and 1 550 nm are the peak or centre wavelengths, stated for the bands 1 260 nm to
1 360 nm, 1 480 nm to 1 500 nm and 1 550 nm to 1 560 nm.
4 Test report
Fully documented test reports and supporting evidence shall be prepared and be available for
inspection as evidence that the tests have been carried out and complied with.

5 Performance requirements
5.1 Reference components
The testing for these components does not require the use of reference components.

General information for 1 490 / 1 550 nm downstream
and 1 310 nm upstream PON WWDM devices
The 1 490 / 1 550 nm downstream and 1 310 nm upstream PON WWDM devices are used
inside the PON for facilitating the transport of downstream traffic and the separate analogue
radio frequency (RF) overlaid video (CATV) signal from the central office (CO) optical line
terminal (OLT) with the upstream one from the optical network unit (ONU) installed at the
premises. They also can be used to combine and separate the downstream and upstream
traffic at the customer ONU.
They multiplex and demultiplex the voice, data and CATV:
– 1 310 nm channel for Data/Voice upstream;
– 1 490 nm channel for Data/Voice downstream;
– 1 550 nm channel for CATV.
