This part of IEC 61169, which is a generic specification, relates to radio frequency connectors for r.f. transmission lines for use in telecommunications, electronics and similar equipment.<\/p>\n
It provides the basis for the sectional standards, which apply to individual connector types. It is intended to establish uniform concepts and procedures concerning:<\/p>\n
terminology;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
standard ratings and characteristics;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
testing and measuring procedures concerning electrical, mechanical and climatic properties;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
classification of connectors with regard to climatic testing procedures involving temperature and humidity.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
The test methods and procedures of this standard are intended for acceptance and type approval testing.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
