Read it in context.
Public scope overview of the optical fiber cabling and components standard. Establishes that the standard specifies performance, transmission, and test and measurement requirements for premises optical fiber cable, connectors, connecting hardware and patch cords, that it defines five polarity methods for array connectivity (A, B, C, U1 and U2), and that only Methods A, B and C support array-to-array signal polarity while all five support duplex configurations. A scope overview rather than a clause-by-clause review; it establishes no test procedure and no conformance outcome. Checked September 16, 2026.
