Scope

This part of IEC 61196, which is a sectional specification, applies to coaxial cables for analogue and digital one- and two-way signal transmission, e. g. for cable networks for television signals, sound signals and interactive services in accordance with IEC 60728-1, IEC 60728-1-1, IEC 60728-101, IEC 60728-10, ISO/IEC 11801-1 and ISO/IEC 11801-4. This includes also the transmission of BCT signals provided by a CATV, MATV or SMATV cable networks. This document specifies the test procedures and requirements for trunk and distribution cables for temperatures between -40 °C and +65 °C and in the frequency range of 5 MHz to 2000 MHz.
