case).
At 7 dB of loss (the worst case), 1 km of transmission is possible with a margin of 4 dB.

(2)Selection of terminal treatment
For selecting wiring cable and cord, the following-described precautions shall be observed.
∙Wiring within cubicle
For the case of intra-cubicle wiring with several meters of length, cords are convenient. Since, however, cords are weak in mechanical strength, the cords shall be fixed at about
two meters of intervals to avoid free-moving of the cords and to avoid direct application of self- weight onto a connector.
Use of plurality of aligners increases the connection loss and causes troubles. The number of aligners shall be minimized. And, if the aligners are used, secure a margin on the light level diagram.
∙Wiring outside cubicle
For the case of outside cubicle wiring, we recommend to use cables in view of durability. The cable shall be a cord-integrated cable. On laying the cables at site, attach optical connectors to the cables referring to "9.5 Method of optical connector assembly" and the technical documents issued by the optical cable manufacturer.
