Metallic communication cable test methods

Part 4-5: Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) – Screening or coupling attenuation – Absorbing clamp method

(IEC 62153-4-5:2021); German version EN IEC 62153-4-5:2021
Class/Status: Standard, valid
Released: 2023-04
VDE Art. No.: 0800851

The absorbing clamp method is suitable to determine the screening- or the coupling-attenuation of metallic communication cables in the frequency range of 30 MHz to 1 000 MHz (2 400 MHz), depending on the performance of the clamp. It is an alternative method to the triaxial method of IEC 62153-4-4 or IEC 62153-4-9. Due to the undefined outer circuit of this absorbing clamp method, the test results obtained at different places and laboratories could vary by at least ± 6 dB.
