What is IL in fiber optic communication
Insertion loss (often abbreviated as IL) mainly measures light lost between two fixed points in an optical fiber. In fiber optic communication, insertion loss and return loss are two important metrics for evaluating the quality of termination between some fiber optic devices, such as fiber connectors, fiber optic cables, pigtails and so on. Return Loss (also called Back Reflection) – The reflection of signal power, usually.
