Overview
EN 61300-2-49:2007 (IEC 61300-2-49:2007) specifies the connector installation test for fibre optic interconnecting devices and passive components. The standard defines a repeatable test method to confirm that a connector or adapter continues to function when installed in space‑limited cabinets, panels or enclosures - i.e., when a panel (cabinet door or backplane) is brought close to the mounted device and any change in optical loss (attenuation) is measured.
Keywords: EN 61300-2-49, IEC 61300-2-49, fibre optic connector test, connector installation test, attenuation measurement, mounting fixture, panel.
Key Topics
- Test purpose: Verify connector performance and stability when a panel/enclosure is brought parallel to the mounted device.
- Apparatus:
- Mounting fixture that holds the device under test (adaptor included for connector tests), able to represent realistic installations and accommodate co‑located input/output cables.
- Flat panel moved parallel to the mounting fixture to simulate a cabinet door.
- Optical source and detector meeting IEC 61300-3-4 requirements.
- Preferred wavelengths (as given in the standard):
- Singlemode: 1310 nm and 1550 nm (optional 1625 nm)
- Multimode: 850 nm and 1300 nm
- Procedure highlights:
- Prepare specimens per manufacturer or relevant specification.
- Pre-condition device for 2 hours at IEC 61300-1 standard test conditions, then record initial attenuation.
- Clean connectors, mount specimen in fixture, dress jumper cable so ~1 m is supported by connector boot.
- Bring panel to specified position parallel to fixture and monitor attenuation per IEC 61300-3-4.
- Re-measure attenuation and perform final examinations.
- Mounting guidance: If multiple adaptor orientations are possible, mount to maximize distance from the connector end to the panel to represent worst/typical installation geometry.
Applications
- Qualification and type‑approval testing of fibre optic connectors, adaptors and patch panels.
- Lab and field verification that connectors remain within acceptable loss limits when installed in dense racks, patch cabinets, enclosures or telecom/data center panels.
- Used by connector manufacturers, test laboratories, installers, system integrators and specifications authors to ensure reliable performance in space‑constrained installations.

- IEC/EN 61300-3-1 - Visual examination procedures.
- IEC/EN 61300-3-4 - Attenuation measurement methods (optical source/detector requirements).
This standard is published by CENELEC/CLC as EN 61300-2-49:2007 and is harmonized with IEC 61300-2-49:2007 for consistent connector installation testing across Europe and internationally.
