NOTES:
1. OOT = Change in optical transmittance.
-a = measurement after test,
-d = measurement during & after test.
2. OIL = Insertion loss.
3. ORL = Return loss.
4. MSG = Signal discontinuity.
5/ Change in material for this note relates to a change in the metallic material for the ST connector
bayonet cap, barrel, and (if metal) boot insert and for the ST-to-ST adapter housing.
6/ If there is a change in material.
7/ If the material change is a non-metal one.
8/ Perform a subset of dimensional inspection. Subset = subset of dimensional inspections that pertain to
part (such as barrel, bayonet cap or boot) being changed.
9/ Either an additional four mated pair can be fabricated for this test or the Group 3 samples may be used
after completion of Group 3 tests.
10/ Polymeric parts from 1 mated pair.
11/ Two mated pair from Group 2.
12/ NASA will perform these tests.
13/ When performing initial qualification or re-qualification for both single mode (SM) and for multimode
(MM), four MM Mated pairs must undergo Group 1 and shock testing only. Ten single mode mated
pair undergo specified inspections/tests. This multimode qualification by similarity is applicable if only
differences, between SM and MM, are ferrule diameter dimension, ferrule hole diameter dimension,
boot color (optional) and markings.
14/ Group 1 mated pair are to be used for Groups 2, 3 and 4.
