How to Calculate Maximum Attenuation for Optical Fiber Links
Attenuation is being measured in dB/km, referring to the loss in signal strength or power of the light. Loss happens due the light traveling through the single-mode or multimode fiber.
There is a variety of wavelengths with which light is traveling. Original wavelength was 580 nm due to support of original LED and detector. As the technology was evolving, the 1310 ...
