Coaxial cables - Part 9-3: Sectional specification for coaxial cables for analogue and digital signal transmission - Indoor drop cables for systems operating at 5 MHz - 6 000 MHz

This European Standard relates to EN 50117-1 and should be read in conjunction with this generic specification. This specification applies to coaxial indoor drop cables for analogue and digital signal transmission, e.g. for cable networks for television signals, sound signals and interactive services in accordance with EN 60728 series and with EN 50173 and EN 50174 series.
Cables according to this standard are designed for an operating temperature range from -40 °C and +70 °C  and at frequencies between 5 MHz and 6 000 MHz.
The purpose of this European Standard is to specify the applicable test methods and requirements for the electrical, mechanical, and environmental and fire performance of the cables.

Koaxiale Kabel - Teil 9-3: Rahmenspezifikation für koaxiale Kabel für analoge und digitale Signalübertragung – Innenkabel für Systeme im Bereich von 5 MHz - 6 000 MHz

Câbles coaxiaux - Partie 9-3: Spécification intermédiaire pour câbles coaxiaux pour la transmission de signaux analogiques et numériques - Câbles de raccordement à usage intérieur pour les systèmes fonctionnant entre 5 MHz et 6 000 MHz

La présente partie de l’EN 50117 qui est une spécification intermédiaire s’applique aux câbles coaxiaux de raccordement à usage intérieur pour la transmission unidirectionnelle ou bidirectionnelle de signaux analogiques et numériques, par exemple pour les réseaux de distribution par câbles pour signaux de télévision, signaux de radiodiffusion sonore et services interactifs, conformément aux normes EN 60728-1, EN 60728-1-1, EN 60728-101, EN 60728-10, EN 50173-1 et EN 50173-4. Cela inclut également la transmission de signaux BCT (Technologies de communication et de télédiffusion) fournis par un réseau de distribution par câble (CATV, MATV ou SMATV).
Ces câbles sont adaptés à la mise en œuvre du type de réseau de Cas D indiqué en 6.6 de l’EN 60728-1-1:2014.
La présente Norme européenne est destinée à spécifier les méthodes d’essai et les exigences applicables pour les caractéristiques électriques, mécaniques et d’environnement et pour les performances de tenue au feu des câbles.

Koaksialni kabli - 9-3. del: Področna specifikacija za koaksialne kable za analogni in digitalni prenos signala - Notranji priključni kabli za sisteme, ki delujejo v območju od 5 MHz do 6 000 MHz

Ta evropski standard je povezan s standardom EN 50117-1 in naj bi se uporabljal skupaj s to splošno specifikacijo. Ta specifikacija se uporablja za koaksialne notranje priključne kable za analogni in digitalni prenos signala, npr. za kabelska omrežja za televizijske signale, zvočne signale ter interaktivne storitve v skladu s skupino standardov EN 60728, EN 50173 in EN 50174.
Kabli v skladu s tem standardom so zasnovani za delovanje v temperaturnem območju od –40 °C do 70 °C in pri frekvencah med 5 MHz in 6000 MHz.
Namen tega evropskega standarda je določiti veljavne preskusne metode in zahteve za električne, mehanske, okoljske ter požarne lastnosti kablov.

4 Requirements for cable construction and design
4.1 General
Cables according to this standard are designed for an operating temperature range from -
1
40 °C to +70 °C and at frequencies between 5 MHz and 6 000 MHz.
When designing the cable, consideration should be given to the maximum admissible current
stated in the detail specification. It is assumed that the raise of temperature of the inner
conductor when submitted to the maximum current under nominal ambient conditions does not
affect the mechanical and electrical properties of the cable.
Cables according to this standard may be operated at voltages > 50 V AC or >75 V DC
according to the detail specification of the manufacturer. However, these cables are not
intended for direct connection to the mains electricity supply or other low impedance sources.
Cables according to this standard shall be designed according to EN 50290-2-1,
Communication cables Part 2-1: Common design rules and construction. They shall be used
according to EN 50290-4-1, Communication cables - Part 4-1: General considerations for the
use of cables - Environmental conditions and safety aspects.
The use of cables according to this standard including delivery, storage and installation shall
be in accordance with EN 50290-4-2, Communication cables - Part 4-2: General
considerations for the use of cables - Guide to use, unless otherwise specified.
Cables according to this standard shall be tested for voltage withstanding. The test is
performed between conductors and between the conductors or screen and the outer surface
of the sheath.
When constructed in accordance with EN 50290-2-1 and EN 50117-1 and submitted to spark
testing, CATV cables according to this standard may be installed together with Low Voltage
cables.
All cables covered by this standard do not fall under the scope of the RED or the EMC
directive. Nevertheless, transfer impedance and screening attenuation according to 5.1.3.6
and 5.1.3.7 shall be specified in the relevant detail specification, if the intended application of
the cable is the use in combination with equipment under the RED or the EMC Directive.
4.2 Inner conductor
The conductor shall meet the requirements of 4.2 of EN 50117-1:2019, and shall be solid and
may be plain or metal coated. Dimensions shall be in accordance with the detailed
specification.
There shall be no joint made subsequent to the last drawing operation.
In case of metal coated conductor, consideration shall be taken for the compatibility of the
connector.
4.3 Dielectric
The dielectric material(s) sh
