ICEA S-84-608将制定通用技术要求 这可由涵盖以下内容的单个电信电缆规范参考: 用于工厂外正常使用的产品。所涵盖的参数提供了材料， 适用于填充聚烯烃的结构和性能要求 所有对数的绝缘和护套电缆，包括各种屏蔽和护套 组合和可选的间隔筛查。由于本标准未涵盖单个电缆设计的所有细节，因此不能 用作产品采购的单一文件。它旨在用于 结合提供完整设计细节的单个产品规范 并指定适用的性能要求。这样的 用户或制造商可编制单独的电缆规范。 指定用于采购的规范由用户选择。

ICEA S-84-608 is to establish generic technical requirements that may be referenced by individual telecommunications cable specifications covering products intended for normal outside plant use. The parameters covered provide material, construction, and performance requirements that are applicable to filled, polyolefin insulated and jacketed cables of all pair counts, including a variety of shield and jacket combinations and optional compartmental screening.Because this Standard does not cover all details of individual cable design, it cannot be used as a single document for procurement of product. It is intended to be used in conjunction with an individual product specification that provides complete design details for the specific cable type and designates the applicable performance requirements. Such individual cable specifications may be prepared either by the user or the manufacturer. The specification designated for procurement is at the option of the user.
