Figure 19: Optical power budget for fiber optic cable lengths
As shown in the graph, if one uses a 62.5/125 µm fiber, the value under the 62.5/125 µm
curve represents the remaining optical budget at any link length, which is available for
overcoming non-fiber cable related losses.
Losses in the connectors and splices are typically 0.3dB/connection. The user must
reserve 3dB spare for the uncertainty of the measurements.
