Calculate fiber loss according to standard procedures for any Network, We consider 0.4 dB per kilometer as the standard fiber loss. This figure can also be considered if the fiber is old and its health is not optimal, leading to increased loss. In such cases, the standard calculation becomes 0.5 * 15 = 8 dB, with an additional media loss of 2 dB, resulting in a total of 9.5 dB for 15km link with 20km SFP | Calculate fiber loss according to standard procedures for any Network, We consider 0.4 dB per kilometer as the standard fiber loss.

To reduce fiber loss, we can utilize a -5dB or -dB attenuator. This solution is primarily effective for long-distance fibers such as those spanning 40k, 80k, or 100k SFP.
