DIN EN 60728-101:2017-11

This standard supplements DIN EN 60728-1 (VDE 0855-7) with aspects of digital assignment. It is applicable to any cable network (including individual receiving systems) distributing only digital channels having in the forward path a coaxial cable output and primarily intended for television and sound signals operating between about 30 MHz and 3 000 MHz. This standard specifies the basic methods of measurement of the operational characteristics of a cable network having coaxial cable outputs in order to assess the performance of these systems and their performance limits. All requirements refer to the limits that shall be met between the input to the head end or the inputs to the head ends and any subscriber outlet, when terminated with a resistor of nominal impedance unless otherwise noted. Where no subscriber outlet is used, this applies to the subscriber end of the local loop. The requirements to be met between the inputs to the head end or head ends and the input to each apartment network are also indicated. The responsible committee is DKE/K 735 "Kabelnetze und Antennen für Fernsehsignale, Tonsignale und interactive Dienste" ("Cable networks for television signals, sound signals and interactive services") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
