Calculating System Loss Budgets
5.1
This section describes how to calculate the loss budgets of a system using a Pretium EDGE Tap
Module. Note that you will need to calculate one loss budget for the LIVE system (Figure 4) and two different
loss budgets for the Tap output (Figure 5 and 6).
Table 1 indicates the system loss values of the system components:
Component
MTP® mated pair loss
LC mated pair loss
Splitter 50/50 (dB)
Splitter 30/70 (dB)
1
Insertion loss specifications when mated to other system components of a like
performance specification
5.2.
To calculate the system losses, add the loss values of the components as illustrated in the examples
shown in Figures 4, 5, and 6.
