7.5.2.1 Setting Pass/Fail Limits
Whether measuring optical power or loss, there are always power input limits (saturation and Loss) or attenuation allowances that
determine whether the fiber cable meets the requirements for the desired application or network elements.
Power Limits (dBm): When check-box is ticked, users can enter the Minimum and Maximum power levels allowed for the
application (e.g. in line with the transceiver’s dynamic range). If the power reading falls beyond those limits, the power measurement
reading will turn red.
Loss Limits: Similar to power limits, user can set Minimum and Maximum amounts of optical power loss that are acceptable for the
application or specified for the cable or installation. User can simply specify the total amount of attenuation in dB. Alternatively user
can select the dB/km or dB/mi if the results are being compared against cable specifications. In this case, enter the length of the
cable under test for the test set to make the conversion.
