An optical attenuator, or fiber optic attenuator, is a device used to reduce the power level of an optical signal, either in free space or in an optical fiber. The basic types of optical attenuators are fixed, step-wise variable, and continuously variable. The power reduction is done by such means as absorption, reflection, diffusion, scattering, deflection, diffraction, and dispersion, etc.

The bend radius of fiber cables is critical for maintaining high performance and longevity. Bending of a fiber optic cable can damage the cable if the curvature of the bend is too small. While installers are aware of the fundamental importance of minimum bend radii, they often lack the practical know-how to. This article provides a practical, installation-focused guide to fiber bend radius, including definitions, standards, common mistakes, and best practices. As the bending becomes more acute, more light leaks out (shown in the picture below).

Fiber optic cable acceptable loss refers to the maximum amount of signal attenuation that can occur in a fiber optic communication system while still maintaining effective performance. 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. Contractors often install, terminate, and certify cabling without knowing the client's specific requirements.
