Full Description
              IEC 61978-1:2014 applies to fibre optic passive chromatic dispersion compensators, all exhibiting the following features:
 - they are optically passive;
 - they have an optical input and an optical output for transmitting optical power;
 - the ports are optical fibres or optical fibre connectors;
 - they are wavelength sensitive;
 - they may be polarization sensitive. This standard establishes uniform requirements for the passive chromatic dispersion compensator. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition, published in 2009, and constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
 - introduction of new terms and definitions;
 - revision of classifications;
 - addition of Annex E. Keywords: fibre optic passive chromatic dispersion compensators
