This part of IEC 61300 details a procedure for determining the suitability of a fibre optic
device to withstand environmental conditions of extended low temperature (cold), which may
occur in use, storage and/or transport. This procedure does not assess the ability of a device
to operate during temperature variations; in this case, IEC 61300-2-22 would be used.
