Optical fibers will transmit visible light less efficiently, so there may be a loss of signal when measuring absorbance through optical fibers, especially due to the increased distance traveled.

Insertion Loss is defined as the reduction in optical power between the input and output of a fiber optic link. It is expressed in decibels (dB) and calculated using the formula: IL = –10 log (Pout / Pin) Where: Lower insertion loss values indicate better optical 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.

Acceptable dB loss for fiber depends on the component you're measuring: a single mated connector pair should lose no more than 0. 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. Fiber optic loss, also known as optical attenuation, refers to the light loss between the transmitter and receiver.
