Radio frequency and coaxial cable assemblies - Part 4: Sectional specification for semi-rigid coaxial cable assemblies

IEC 60966-4:2024 is a sectional specification that relates to semi-rigid coaxial cable assemblies operating in the transverse electromagnetic mode (TEM). It specifies the design and construction, IEC type designation, workmanship, marking and packaging, standard rating and characteristics, electrical, mechanical and environmental requirements of finished semi-rigid cable assemblies, quality assessment, delivery and storage, etc. This part of IEC 60966 applies to semi-rigid cable assemblies composed of semi-rigid coaxial cables and coaxial connectors. Semi-rigid cable assemblies are widely used in mobile communication systems, microwave test equipment, radar, aerospace and other fields. NOTE 1 For the purpose of this sectional specification, a cable assembly is always regarded as an integral unit. All specifications apply to the finished assembly and not to individual and non-assembled parts thereof. NOTE 2 This sectional specification can be supplemented with detail specifications giving additional details as required by the particular application. This application will not necessarily require all tests.

Konfektionierte Koaxial- und Hochfrequenzkabel - Teil 4: Rahmenspezifikation für halbstarre konfektionierte Koaxialkabel

Cordons coaxiaux et cordons pour fréquences radioélectriques – Partie 4 : Spécification intermédiaire pour cordons coaxiaux semi-rigides

L’IEC 60966-4:2024 est une spécification intermédiaire qui concerne les cordons coaxiaux semi-rigides qui fonctionnent en mode électromagnétique transverse (TEM). Elle spécifie la conception et la construction, la désignation de type IEC, la qualité d’exécution, le marquage et l’emballage, les valeurs assignées et les caractéristiques normales, les exigences électriques, mécaniques et environnementales des cordons semi-rigides finis, l’évaluation de la qualité, la livraison et le stockage, etc. La présente partie de l’IEC 60966 s’applique aux cordons semi-rigides composés de câbles coaxiaux semi-rigides et de connecteurs coaxiaux. Les cordons semi-rigides sont largement utilisés dans les systèmes de communication mobile, le matériel d’essai hyperfréquences, les radars, l’aérospatial et d’autres domaines. NOTE 1 Pour les besoins de la présente spécification intermédiaire, un cordon est toujours considéré dans son intégralité. Toutes les spécifications s’appliquent au cordon fini et non à des parties individuelles et non assemblées de celui-ci. NOTE 2 La présente spécification intermédiaire peut être complétée par des spécifications particulières donnant des détails supplémentaires comme l’exige l’application particulière. Cette application n’exigera pas obligatoirement tous les essais.
