Radio frequency and coaxial cable assemblies - Part 2-6: Detail specification for cable assemblies for radio and TV receivers - Frequency range 0 MHz to 3 000 MHz, IEC 61169-24 connectors

IEC 60966-2-6:2016 is a detail specification which applies to coaxial cables described in the IEC 61196 series. It relates to cable assemblies for radio and TV receivers, and in particular to the cable assemblies subfamily F (see IEC 61169-24). These cable assemblies are used as described in IEC 60728-4. This part of IEC 60966 gives subfamily requirements and severities which shall be applied. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) the return loss requirements and the insertion loss requirements are matched to the relevant cables,
b) screening effectiveness shall be measured according to IEC 62153-4-7, triaxial method,
c) screening class A+ was introduced.
This publication is to be read in conjunction with IEC 60966-1:1999, IEC 60966-2-1:2008 and IEC 60966-2-2:2003

L'IEC 60966-2-6:2016 est une spécification particulière qui s'applique aux câbles coaxiaux souples décrits dans la série IEC 61196. Elle concerne les cordons pour les récepteurs de télévision ou radio, et en particulier la sous-famille de cordons F (voir IEC 61169-24). Ces cordons sont utilisés comme cela est décrit dans l'IEC 60728-4. La présente partie de l'IEC 60966 indique les exigences relatives aux sous-familles et les sévérités qui doivent être appliquées. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:
a) les exigences d'affaiblissement de réflexion et les exigences de perte d'insertion sont adaptées aux câbles correspondants;
b) l'efficacité d'écrantage doit être mesurée conformément à la méthode triaxiale donnée dans l'IEC 62153-4-7;
c) la classe d'écrantage A+ a été introduite.
Cette publication doit être lue conjointement avec la IEC 60966-1:1999, IEC 60966-2-1:2008 et IEC 60966-2-2:2003.

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 itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
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 60966-2-6 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 46:
Cables, wires, waveguides, RF connectors, RF and microwave passive components and
accessories.
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2009. This edition
constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
a) the return loss requirements and the insertion loss requirements are matched to the
relevant cables,
b) screening effectiveness shall be measured according to IEC 62153-4-7, triaxial method,
c) screening class A+ was introduced.

INTRODUCTION
This part of IEC 60966 is a detail specification which applies to coaxial cables described in
the IEC 61196 series. It relates to cable assemblies for radio and TV receivers, and in
particular to the cable assemblies subfamily F (see IEC 61169-24). These cable assemblies
are used as described in IEC 60728-4.
This part of IEC 60966 gives subfamily requirements and severities which shall be applied.
Under qualification approval, the qualification will be conducted in accordance with 12.2 of
IEC 60966-2-1:2008 taking into account the specified variants. Only the tests whose results
might depend on the variants will be repeated
Under capability approval, the qualification will be conducted on the relating CQCs (capability
qualifying components) as defined in 12.3 of IEC 60966-2-1:2008 and described in the CM
(capability manual). Unless otherwise specified in the CM, only lot-by-lot tests from groups Ba
and Eb will be conducted on delivered products, all other tests will be performed on CQCs as
defined in 12.3 of IEC 60966-2-1:2008 and described in the CM.
