EVS-EN 50289-1-1:2017

The draft European Standard specifies the electrical test methods for cables used in analogue and digital communication systems.
Part 1 of EN 50289 consists of the following documents:
-  Part 1-1  General requirements
-  Part 1-2  DC resistance
-  Part 1-3  Dielectric strength
-  Part 1-4  Insulation resistance
-  Part 1-5  Capacitance
-  Part 1-6  Electromagnetic performance
-  Part 1-7  Velocity of propagation
-  Part 1-8  Attenuation
-  Part 1-9  Unbalance attenuation (longitudinal conversation loss, longitudinal conversion transfer loss)
-  Part 1-10  Crosstalk
-  Part 1-11  Characteristic impedance, input impedance, return loss
-  Part 1-12   Inductance
-  Part 1-13  Coupling attenuation or screening attenuation of patch cords / coaxial cable assemblies / pre-connectorised cables
-  Part 1-14  Coupling attenuation or screening attenuation of connecting hardware
-  Part 1-15  Coupling attenuation of links and channels (Laboratory conditions)
-  Part 1-16  Coupling attenuation of cable assemblies (Field conditions)
-  Part 1-17  Exogenous Crosstalk ExNEXT and ExFEXT
Further test details (e.g. temperature, duration) and/or test requirements are given in the relevant cable standard.
