ECSS Communications — Space Link Media (space-systems/ecss/e50-space-link-media)

Assess the transmission media carrying a mission's space links against what those links must deliver, under ECSS-E-ST-50C clause 5.6.12.1: every link names a medium the mission declared and agreed, and that medium supports the link's required rate, range and availability.
