CEI EN 50700 PDF

This European Standard specifies the optical fibre optical fibre access network cabling within multisubscriber premises termed the premises distribution access network (PDAN). The premises may comprise single or multiple buildings.

The cabling specified is intended to be pre-installed, in readiness for subsequent connection of the multisubscriber premises to an access providers infrastructure to support deployment of optical broadband networks.

This European Standard does not specify either the access network cabling external to the premises or the cabling within the subscriber space for onward distribution of services beyond the customer premises equipment.

This European Standard specifies:

a) the structure and configuration of the optical fibre cabling;

b) cabling performance requirements;

c) implementation options.

Safety practices in relation to optical power hazard are specified in EN 60825-2. Optical powers higher than the hazard levels specified in EN 60825-2 are not considered in this standard.

Safety (electrical safety, fire, etc.) and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements are outside the scope of this European Standard and are covered by other standards and regulations. However, information given in this European Standard may be of assistance in meeting these standards and regulations.
