Insertion Loss of fiber connectors
I am trying to find a reference or similar information on estimating the amount of gap a fiber optic connector would need to generate an insertion loss of approximately 6 dB.
We are having some problems with erratic connectors that appear to not fully mate when plugged in. I am trying to explain to the boss that this is not something we can adjust that we need to replace the connectors...
I am assuming the required gap is very small but my guess is not going to prove it to the boss so I would like to be able to cite a reference.
Regards Larry
