This part of IEC 61753 contains the minimum initial performance, test and measurement
requirements and severities which plug-pigtail style and plug-receptacle style OTDR reflecting
devices need to satisfy in order to be categorized as meeting the requirements of category C-
Controlled environments, as defined in Annex A of IEC 61753-1:2007 [1] . They are for out-of-
band OTDR testing of an optical fibre system.
