本标准涵盖的光纤到天线（FTTA）电缆包括用于将光纤从蜂窝站点的基带单元（BBU）分配和传输到相关结构上的远程无线电单元（RRU）/有源天线单元（AAU）的电缆。这些电缆可以是混合设计，包括用于电力输送和控制的电导体，也可以是独立的光缆。本标准主要参考ANSI/ICEA S-87-640（ICEA 640）和ANSI/ICEA S-104-696（ICEA 696）的光学性能要求。符合ICEA 640或ICEA 696的独立光缆也应视为符合本标准。

Fiber to the Antenna (FTTA) cables covered by this standard include cable used for distribution and delivery of optical fiber from the baseband unit (BBU) of a cell site to the remote radio unit (RRU)/active antenna unit (AAU) on the associated structure. These cables may be a hybrid design, incorporating electrical conductors for power delivery and control, or standalone optical cables. This standard primarily references ANSI/ICEA S-87-640 (ICEA 640) and ANSI/ICEA S-104-696 (ICEA 696) for optical performance requirements. Standalone optical cables complying with ICEA 640 or ICEA 696 shall also be considered compliant with this standard.
