Overview

EN 60603-7-2:2010 (CLC adoption of IEC 60603-7-2:2010) is the European detail specification for 8-way, unshielded, free and fixed connectors intended for data transmissions with frequencies up to 100 MHz. It defines electrical transmission requirements and references the dimensional, mechanical, environmental and test requirements given in IEC/EN 60603-7. These connectors are typically used as Category 5 / Class D connectors in ISO/IEC 11801 cabling systems and are specified to be intermateable, interoperable and backward compatible with other IEC 60603-7 series connectors.

Key Topics

  • Scope and compatibility: Requirements for 8-way unshielded free (plugs) and fixed (sockets) connectors; compatibility with IEC 60603-7 series.
  • Transmission characteristics: Performance parameters for operation up to 100 MHz including insertion loss, return loss, NEXT, FEXT, propagation delay, and delay skew.
  • Electrical requirements: Creepage/clearance distances, voltage proof, insulation resistance and contact resistance for separable interfaces.
  • Signal integrity and EMC: Transfer impedance and coupling attenuation requirements to control cross-talk and electromagnetic coupling in unshielded hardware.
  • Test methods and schedules: Test procedures are referenced to IEC/EN test standards (notably IEC 60512-27-100 for signal integrity tests). The standard defines basic (minimum) and full test schedules and preconditioning for type testing and production verification.
  • Additional parameters: Inclusion of TCL/TCTL (test limits for coupling loss/transfer conversion loss) requirements and references to environmental and mechanical conditioning from IEC 60603-7.

Applications

  • Specification and acceptance criteria for connectors used in structured cabling and network hardware where Category 5 / Class D performance is required.
  • Reference for connector designers, component manufacturers, cable vendors, test laboratories and compliance engineers to ensure interoperability and consistent electrical performance.
  • Procurement and QA documentation for system integrators and installers who need to verify that connector hardware meets electrical and mechanical test schedules for reliable data transmission up to 100 MHz.

Related Standards

  • IEC/EN 60603-7 (base specification for 8‑way connectors)
  • IEC 60512-27-100 / EN 60512 series (signal integrity tests)
  • ISO/IEC 11801 (structured cabling and Category 5 / Class D)
  • IEC 61156 series (multicore/symmetrical pair cables)
  • IEC 62153-4-12 (EMC coupling attenuation test methods)

EN 60603-7-2:2010 is essential when specifying or testing unshielded 8‑way connectors for category 5 networks - it aligns mechanical, electrical and signal-integrity requirements to ensure interoperability and predictable network performance.

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
