Easier fiber end face inspections: Changes to IEC 61300-3-35
The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) developed the 61300-3-35 standard to guide consistent fiber end face inspection — here we discuss the latest edition, which has some
IEC 61300-3-35:2022
IEC 61300-3-35:2022 is concerned with the observation and classification of debris, scratches and defects. The inspection requirements are based on IEC TR 62627-05.
Fiber Inspection
The standard contains pass/fail requirements for fiber inspection and analysis of the end face of an optical connector, specifying separate criteria for different types of connections (for example, SM-PC,
IEC 61300-3-35
This part of IEC 61300 describes methods for quantitatively assessing the end face quality of a polished fibre optic connector or of a fibre optic transceiver using a fibre-stub type interface.

A Study of End Face Geometry and Visual Inspection of a Very Small
Data from a wide-ranging sample set of MMC connectors is gathered for this study, comparing end face geometry and visual quality of samples to optical performance.
Visual Inspection and Cleaning of Multimode and Single Mode
The end face surface is defined as the mating surface of a fiber optic connector. It consists of a glass core and cladding, surrounded by a ferrule made of ceramic, plastic, or metal.
