Custom connector loss with the DTX-EFM2 fiber adapter

Many specifiers hold installers to a higher standard than the approved cabling standards. It's not uncommon to see a fiber test specification with a connector loss of 0.5 dB instead of 0.75 dB. 걱정하지 마십시오. The DTX CableAnalyzer can handle that. You just need to create a custom test limit.
