Standard for Splice Loss in Power Optical Cables
It describes suitable procedures for splicing that should be carefully followed in order to obtain reliable splices between single optical fibres or ribbons. The Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) will be used to test splice loss and to conduct span analysis. This is a good page to bookmark on your smartphone, tablet and/or laptop to have for making calculations in the field. Splice loss refers to the part of the optical power that is not transmitted through the splice and is radiated out of the fibre.
