I believe you are correct. Telcordia has a slew of other component
performance documents on the subject. I don't know of any compliance
standards that apply to the passive items, active obviously another issue.

The IEC has circulated for comments 86B/1385/FDIS, Fiber Optic
Interconnecting Devices and Passive Components - Basic Test and Measurement
Procedures for Attenuation and 86B/1386/FDIS, Fiber Optic Interconnecting
Devices and Passive Components - Basic Test and Measurement Procedures for
Attenuation and Return Loss.  I believe these documents cover performance
evaluation procedures rather than "components compliance".

        All,

        I was asked by one of my colleagues here if there are any compliance
        requirements for passive fiber optic components such as:
patchcords,
        connector adapters ... 

        My quick answer was "no";  however, the cautious side of me says
that there
        may be some EN standard governing these types of components.

        Has anyone seen or heard of standards that regulate passive fiber
optic
        components?
