Overview
EN 4641-104:2010 is a CEN product standard in the Aerospace series that defines a semi-loose, ruggedized duplex optical cable for aircraft and other aerospace applications. It covers a two‑core cable with 62,5/125 µm graded‑index (GI) fibres, a nominal outside diameter of 4.95 mm, and construction based on a pair of EN 4641-102 component cables with added sheaths for ruggedization. The standard specifies general characteristics, qualification and acceptance conditions, quality assurance and required test methods.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Core construction: Duplex semi‑loose assembly comprising two EN 4641‑102 fibre cables with PTFE barrier tape, fillers and an extruded fluoropolymer outer jacket.
- Fibre type & size: Two GI multimode fibres, 62.5/125 µm nominal.
- Dimensional & mechanical:
- Nominal outside diameter: 4.95 mm (±0.25 mm)
- Cable mass: ~26.5 g/m
- Minimum bend radius (installation/long term): 10 × OD (50 mm)
- Storage bend radius: 20 × OD (100 mm)
- Optical performance:
- Attenuation (20 °C): ≤ 4 dB/km at 850 nm; ≤ 2 dB/km at 1300 nm
- Numerical aperture: 0.275 ± 0.015
- Environmental range: Operating temperature −65 °C to +150 °C.
- Testing & qualification: Tests specified (per EN 3745-100 and EN 4641-102) include visual inspection, dimensional stability, fibre attenuation, temperature cycling, thermal shock, cold bend, flammability, abrasion, tensile, impact, cut‑through, torsion, flexure endurance, crush, extreme bend, smoke density and toxicity limits.
- Marking & identification: Marker tape under jacket or UV laser marking; marking must follow EN 2424 requirements; hot stamping prohibited. Outer jacket colour typically light purple unless otherwise specified.
- Storage & delivery: Packaging, labelling and delivery lengths per EN 4641-001; storage humidity < 90%, temperatures −65 °C to 85 °C, and cable tensile load < 30 N.
Applications and typical users

- Onboard aircraft data and avionics networks requiring ruggedized fibre runs
- Aerospace platforms exposed to extreme temperatures, vibration and abrasion
- Harsh‑environment installations (military aircraft, helicopters, space vehicles where applicable)
- Users:
- Aerospace cable manufacturers and component suppliers
- Aircraft OEMs, system integrators and wiring harness designers
- Qualification/test laboratories and procurement/quality assurance teams
