27、fiber optic component or assembly (device) to withstand impacts of the type that might be encountered in normal service. This test is normally intended to be performed only on devices designed to meet impact requirements. 1.2 Failure modes c- Typical indications of damage to a fiber optic device res
28、ulting from this test include, but are not limited to: - inability to mate or unmate, - broken parts or accessories, - power transmission change, - damage to seals. 2 Normative references Test or inspection requirements may include, but are not limited to, the following references: ASTM A 659-85, St

Mount the fixture to a wall or other rigid structure at a height of 600 mm (24 in) above the impact surface. The impac
36、t surface shall be a concrete slab at least 100 mm (4 in) thick. Figure 2. Impact test apparatus for Method B. 3.1.3 Method C Use a test fixture similar to that shown in Figure 3. Unless otherwise specified, the weight of the drop impact carriage shall be 0.45 kg (1 Ib). The carriage shall freely sl
37、ide on the guide shafts. When properly secured, the sample under test shall not be damaged by the connector clamp fixture. The impact pad shall be a 3 mm (0.125 in) thick mild steel (Grade Designation 1020 per ASTM A 659) plate fastened to the base of the impact carriage. - 4 STD-EIA TIA-q55-2C-ENGL

39、 55-2 C 3.2 Optical test apparatus - Use optical test equipment as specified in FOTP-20, or equipment listed in other test method(s) as specified in the Detail Specification. 4 Sampling and specimens A test sample shall consist of the component or device specified and shall be terminated to a cable
40、as intended for normal service, complete with accessories. Dust caps shall be attached to the fiber optic device before the test, unless otherwise specified in the Detail Specification. 4.1 MethodA Unless otherwise specified, the length of the cable shall be 1.5 m (4.9 fi). 4.2 Method B Unless other
41、wise specified, the length of the cable shall be 2 m (7 ft). - 4.3 Method C Unless otherwise specified, the length of the cable shall be 2 m (7 ft). 5 Procedures 5.1 Preconditioning Unless otherwise specified in the Detail Specification, precondition the test specimens for a minimum period of 24 hou
42、rs under the standard atmospheric condition of ElMIA- 455. 6 TINEIA-455-2C 5.2 Inspection Inspect the component or device before undergoing the test in accordance with the requirements of FOTP-13. 5.3 Transmittance measurements Measure and record the optical transmittance before the test using the m
43、ethods of FOTP-20, or using alternative methods as specified by the Detail Specification. Any optical surfaces that typically are cleaned before use (e.g., connector endfaces) shall be cleaned before the transmittance measurement is performed. 5.4 Impact test procedures using different methods . - P
44、erform the test as required by one of the following methods. 5.4.1 Method A Clamp the cable pigtail so that, with the device hanging under its own weight, the end of the device extends to the center of the steel block. Then raise the device to the height of the clamp, and with the cable extended, re
45、lease so as to strike the block. Drop the device eight times. The device should not be allowed to bounce, but restrained to only one impact. If specified in the Detail Specification, rotate the test specimen 45 degrees between successive drops. 5.4.2 Method B Securely fasten the cable attached to th
46、e sample component or device to the wall- mounted fixture such that the cable assembly can be fully extended. - Unless otherwise specified in the Detail Specification: 5.4.2.1 Drop the cable assembly repeatedly, observing the height sequence (highest drop first) and the number of drops as specified
47、in Table 1 for the designated service class. 5.4.2.2 Extend the cable assembly to its full length from the test fixture to a drop height specified in Table I. Allow the cable and the attached component or device to freely fall and strike the impact pad as shown in Figure I. The device should not be
48、allowed to bounce, but restrained to only one impact. If specified in the Detail Specification, rotate the test specimen 45 degrees between successive drops. 7 STD-EIA TIA-LI55-2C-ENGL 1998 D 3234b00 Ob23b88 5b7 II Drop Height i 6 mm (i 0.25 in.)
