    Total loss of optical cable channel

    Fiber optic loss is calculated in two parts: cable loss and connector loss. Cable loss (dB) = cable length (km) × attenuation coefficient (dB/km). 2 dB/km for single-mode fiber at 1550nm and 0. The power budget refers to the amount of fiber optic cable plant loss that a datalink (transmitter to receiver) can tolerate in order to operate properly.
