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 61076-3-110 has been prepared by subcommittee 48B: Connectors,
of IEC technical committee 48: Electromechanical components and mechanical structures for
electronic equipment.
This International Standard cancels and replaces IEC/PAS 61076-3-110 (2002).

INTRODUCTION
This part of IEC 61076 describes connectors according to IEC 61076-3 series connectors
requirements.
The connectors are similar to and compatible with IEC 60603-7 series connectors.
The IEC 61076-3-110 free connector can be used in data communication cabling systems with
the IEC 60603-7-7 and IEC 60603-7-71 fixed connector.
The IEC 61076-3-110 connector includes up to 12 contacts, including up to 8 contacts
(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) that are similar to a standard IEC 60603-7 series connector. In addition, the
IEC 61076-3-110 connector includes up to 4 additional contacts (6’,3’,4’,5’) located on the
opposite side from the original contact positions of a basic IEC 60603-7 series connector.
For use in high speed communications cabling systems, IEC 60603-7-7 and IEC 60603-7-71
fixed connectors include a switch or other means to engage these two different sets of four
contacts to enable backward compatibility for transmission performance. In this application the
IEC 61076-3-110 free connector simply uses 8 contacts (1,2,3’,4’,5’,6’,7,8) and no switch.
The IEC 61076-3-110 fixed connector includes a board mounted style in addition to the cable
mounted style.
The complete requirements for the connectors described in this specification correspond to this
detail specification and the current issues of IEC 61076-3 and IEC 60603-7 series, which are
referenced herein accordingly.

2.2 Systems of levels
2.2.1 Interchangeability level
These connectors are intermateable, interoperable and backward compatible with
IEC 61076-3-110 and IEC 60603-7 series connectors.
The interchangeability of these connectors, insofar as intermateability, interoperability and
backward compatibility requirements are concerned, are ensured for mated connectors when
individual connector halves are from different sources.
2.2.2 Intermateability
Intermateability is ensured by applying the “GO” and “NO-GO” gauge requirements as well as
adherence to the dimensional requirements.
2.2.3 Interoperability
Interoperability of different IEC 61076-3-110 connectors is ensured by compliance with all
transmission requirements when the connector is mated with the respective test-connector as
described in Annex C.
These connectors are interoperable with IEC 60603-7-7 and IEC 60603-7-71 series
connectors.
NOTE In this detail specification, the term “category”, when used in reference to transmission performance, refers
to those categories defined by ISO/IEC 11801.
2.2.4 Backward compatibility
The backward compatibility requirement ensures that a free connector or fixed connector,
which is in compliance with this detail specification, mated with a fixed connector or free
connector in compliance with IEC 60603-7-7 or IEC 60603-7-71 connectors, shall fully comply
with the respective requirements of IEC 60603-7-7 or IEC 60603-7-71 connectors.
