Radio frequency and coaxial cable assemblies - Part 2-2: Blank detail specification for flexible coaxial cable assemblies
IEC 60966-2-2:2024 is a blank detail specification that relates to flexible coaxial cable assemblies operating in the transverse electromagnetic mode (TEM). The creation of a uniform layout and style of detail specifications is determined by the use of a blank detail specification pro forma. The detail specification may be prepared by a national organization, a manufacturer or a user.
IEC 60966-2-2:2024 is an international standard published by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). It specifies a blank detail specification for flexible coaxial cable assemblies operating in the transverse electromagnetic (TEM) mode. This standard provides a uniform pro forma for the creation of detailed specifications, ensuring consistency and quality in the documentation and manufacturing of radio frequency (RF) and coaxial cable assemblies. The blank detail specification can be completed by national organizations, manufacturers, or users to suit a wide range of requirements.
Blank Detail Specification: IEC 60966-2-2 provides a standardized layout for developing detailed specifications of flexible coaxial cable assemblies, helping streamline procurement, manufacturing, and testing processes.
Scope and Application: The standard applies to flexible coaxial cable assemblies designed for various RF applications and outlines requirements related to assembly dimensions, ratings, characteristics, and inspection procedures.
TEM Mode Operation: Focuses on cables and assemblies that operate in the transverse electromagnetic mode, which is vital for consistent signal integrity in RF and microwave systems.
Instruction for Specification Preparation: Includes guidance for preparing a detail specification, including the description, sketch or drawing of the cable assembly, its ratings, variants, and relevant inspection requirements.
IEC 60966-2-2 is relevant wherever high-performance flexible coaxial cable assemblies are used, such as:
