61196-3 Ó IEC:1998– 7 –INTERNATIONAL ELECTROTECHNICAL COMMISSION___________RADIO FREQUENCY CABLES –Part 3: Sectional specification for coaxial cablesfor local area networksFOREWORD1)The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprisingall national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of the IEC is to promoteinternational co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. Tothis end and in addition to other activities, the IEC publishes International Standards. Their preparation isentrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with mayparticipate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaisingwith the IEC also participate in this preparation. The IEC collaborates closely with the International Organizationfor Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the twoorganizations.2)The formal decisions or agreements of the IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, aninternational consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representationfrom all interested National Committees.3)The documents produced have the form of recommendations for international use and are published in the formof standards, technical reports or guides and they are accepted by the National Committees in that sense.4)In order to promote international unification, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC InternationalStandards transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional standards. Anydivergence between the IEC Standard and the corresponding national or regional standard shall be clearlyindicated in the latter.5)The IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for anyequipment declared to be in conformity with one of its standards.6)Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subjectof patent rights. The IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.International Standard IEC 61196-3 has been prepared by subcommittee 46A: Coaxial cables,of IEC technical committee 46: Cables, wires, waveguides, r.f. connectors and accessories forcommunication and signalling.This standard shall be used in conjunction with IEC 61196-1.The text of this standard is based on the following documents:FDISReport on voting46A/323/FDIS46A/332/RVDFull information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report onvoting indicated in the above table.SIST EN 61196-3:2002

61196-3 Ó IEC:1998– 9 –RADIO FREQUENCY CABLES –Part 3: Sectional specification for coaxial cablesfor local area networks1 General1.1 Scope and objectThis sectional specification specifies requirements for radio frequency coaxial cables for localarea networks.The object of this sectional specification is to prescribe recommended ratings andcharacteristics and to select from the generic specification the appropriate quality assessmentprocedures, test and measuring methods, and to give general performance requirements forcoaxial cables for local area networks plus complementary test methods. Test severities andrequirements prescribed in detail specifications referring to this sectional specification shouldbe of equal or higher performance levels.When the requirements of IEC 61196-1 and of this sectional specification conflict with eachother, this sectional specification shall prevail.1.2 Normative referencesThe following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text,constitute provisions of this part of IEC 61196. At the time of publication, the editions indicatedwere valid. All normative documents are subject to revision, and parties to agreements basedon this part of IEC 61196 are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the mostrecent editions of the normative documents indicated below.
