Loss at a single splice point in optical cable

Acceptable splice loss in optical fiber is typically considered to be less than 0. That is usually done for permanent connections, but it. The cable plant "loss budget" is a function of the losses of the components in the cable plant - fiber, connectors and splices, plus any passive optical components like splitters in PONs. Any butt-joint requires three fundamental operations: fiber end preparation, fiber alignment to icron precision and alignment retention.
