You fix this by cleaning connectors, checking bends, and using loss budget calculations. Attenuation in fiber optics is the gradual loss of light signal strength as it travels through a fiber cable. Signal attenuation is one of the most critical factors affecting the performance of fiber optic cabling.

What is a Coherent Optical Fiber Communication System? A coherent optical fiber communication system leverages variable properties of light waves, including amplitude, phase, and polarization, to optimize the capacity of a fiber optic link. Coherent optics are typically used for ultra-high bandwidth applications ranging anywhere from 100 Gigabit to 1 Terabit per second. Powerful digital signal processing chips (DSPs) are embedded within these systems to mitigate non-linear effects caused by fiber impairments, including chromatic.
