Can I Splice 62.5/125 Fiber To 50/125 Fiber? If So What Type Of Nominal Loss Would I Be Looking At At For My Loss Budget? |

Answer» If you splice it, you will GET directional losses. Transmitting from 50 to 62.5 FIBER, you'll get virtually no losses but from 62.5 to 50, you will get a minimum of 1.6-1.9 dB loss due to the SIZE and NA mismatch. (50 micron fiber has a lower NUMERICAL aperture (NA) than 62.5) for a table of interconnection losses with different size FIBERS. If you splice it, you will get directional losses.
