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.
The main task of IEC technical committees is to prepare International Standards. However, a
technical committee may propose the publication of a technical report when it has collected
data of a different kind from that which is normally published as an International Standard, for
example "state of the art".
IEC/TR 61156-1-3, which is a technical report, has been prepared by subcommittee 46C:
Wires and symmetric cables, of IEC technical committee 46: Cables, wires, waveguides, R.F.
connectors, R.F. and microwave passive components and accessories.

Full information on the voting for the approval of this technical report can be found in the
report on voting indicated in the above table.
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
A list of all the parts in the IEC 61156 series, published under the general title Multicore and
symmetrical pair/quad cables for digital communications, can be found on the IEC website.
The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until
the stability 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
• amended.
A bilingual version of this publication may be issued at a later date.

MULTICORE AND SYMMETRICAL PAIR/QUAD
CABLES FOR DIGITAL COMMUNICATIONS –

Part 1-3: Electrical transmission parameters for modelling cable
assemblies using symmetrical pair/quad cables

1 Scope
This technical report is a supplement to IEC 61156-1 Edition 3 (2007): Multicore and
symmetrical pair/quad cables for digital communications – Part 1: Generic specification.
This technical report covers the following topics following this standard:
– the near-end crosstalk test methods and length correction procedures of 6.3.5;
– the far-end crosstalk test methods and length correction procedures of 6.3.6;
– the concatenation of measured cable segments, even if they are of different design.
The final objective of this technical report is to describe the mathematics involved to model
the concatenation of cable sections of different length, not based upon measurements but
based upon the specification limits of the cables involved. This is required as a base
foundation of the complete channel modelling, involving also the connectivity covered by IEC
SC48B towards channels, as required and requested by ISO/IEC JTC1/SC25 WG3 for
incorporation into ISO/IEC 11801:2002 [1] .
This TR is informative and contains observations and recommendations applicable to using
the length correction formulas for either measurements or modelling of balanced cables.
