Radio-frequency connectors - Part 1: Generic specification - General requirements and measuring methods

IEC 61169-1:2013(E), which is a generic specification, relates to radio frequency connectors for r.f. transmission lines for use in telecommunications, electronics and similar equipment. It provides the basis for the sectional standards, which apply to individual connector types. It is intended to establish uniform concepts and procedures concerning: - terminology; - standard ratings and characteristics; - testing and measuring procedures concerning electrical, mechanical and climatic properties; - classification of connectors with regard to climatic testing procedures involving temperature and humidity. The test methods and procedures of this standard are intended for acceptance and type approval testing. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition, published in 1992, its Amendments 1 (1996) and 2 (1997). This edition constitutes a technical revision. With respect to the previous edition, tests methods have been updated as well as terminology.

Connecteurs pour fréquences radioélectriques - Partie 1: Spécification générique - Exigences générales et méthodes de mesure

L'IEC 61169-1:2013 est une spécification générique, qui s'applique aux connecteurs pour fréquences radioélectriques de lignes de transmission pour fréquences radioélectriques destinés à être utilisés dans des équipements de télécommunications, électroniques et similaires. Elle fournit la base de spécifications intermédiaires qui s'appliquent à des types de connecteurs distincts. Elle a pour objet de fixer des concepts et des procédures uniformes concernant: - la terminologie; - les valeurs assignées et les caractéristiques; - les procédures d'essai et de mesure concernant les propriétés électriques, mécaniques et climatiques; - la classification des connecteurs d'après les procédures d'essais climatiques relatives à la température et à l'humidité. Les méthodes et les procédures d'essai de la présente norme sont d'abord prévues pour des essais d'approbation de type. Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition parue en 1992, ainsi que ses amendements 1 (1996) et 2 (1997). Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Par rapport à l'édition antérieure, les méthodes d'essai ainsi que la terminologie ont été mises à jour. Le contenu du corrigendum publié en Février 2016 est inclus.

Radiofrekvenčni konektorji - 1. del: Rodovna specifikacija - Splošne zahteve in merilne metode

Ta del standarda IEC 61169, ki je rodovna specifikacija, se nanaša na radiofrekvenčne konektorje za radiofrekvenčne prenosne vode, ki se uporabljajo v telekomunikacijski, elektronski in podobni opremi. Zagotavlja podlago za področne standarde, ki se uporabljajo za posamezne tipe konektorjev. Namenjen je določitvi enotnih konceptov in postopkov v zvezi s: – terminologijo; – standardnimi vrednostmi in značilnostmi; – preskusnimi in merilnimi postopki v zvezi z električnimi, mehanskimi in podnebnimi lastnostmi; – klasifikacijo konektorjev glede na podnebne preskusne postopke, ki vključujejo temperaturo in vlažnost. Preskusne metode in postopki iz tega standarda so namenjeni preskušanju sprejemljivosti ter homologacijskemu preskušanju.
