Fault analysis: Optical performance investigation of fiber connections using incorrectly cleaved fiber ends

Incorrectly cleaved fiber ends, which are not ideal and are uneven, result from the use of a defective fiber cleaver. The optical performance of field installable connections using incorrectly cleaved fiber ends might deteriorate to more than 40 dB for insertion loss and less than 30 dB for return loss. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
