Distance loss of drop fiber optic cable

Home / Distance loss of drop fiber optic cable

The easiest and most accurate way is to perform an Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) trace of the actual link. This will give you the actual loss values for all events (connectors, splices, and fiber loss) in the link. To be able to judge whether a fiber optic cable plant is good, one does a insertion loss test with a light source and power meter and compares that to an estimate of what is a reasonable loss for that cable plant. The estimate, called a "loss budget" is calculated using typical component losses for.
