Abstract

This specification covers the performance requirements of fiber optic interconnection boxes. The interconnection boxes are used to house splices, connectors, and couplers, and to provide a means of distributing cables and fibers to user equipment. This specification covers the mechanical, chemical, and environmental conditions within which an interconnection box must operate and the means by which the interconnection box is to be tested for use in those environments. <br>The PIN shall consist of the letter "M" followed by the basic specification sheet number, and a sequentially assigned dash number (see <a>3.1</a>). <br>Example: <a><img alt="ILLUSTRATION" /></a> <strong>Beneficial comments (recommendations, additions, deletions) and any pertinent data which may be of use in improving this document should be addressed to: Naval Sea Systems Command, Sea 5523, DoD Standardization Program and Documents Division, Department of the Navy, Washington, DC 20362-5101 by using the Standardization Document Improvement Proposal (DD Form 1426) appearing at the end of this document or by letter.</strong> <b><u>Intended Use:</u></b> The fiber optic interconnection boxes covered by this specification are for use in Naval Shipboard applications, where their performance characteristics are required. <br>
