ABSTRACT:
For determining an insertion loss (LDUT) of an optical component (20) having one or more connections (C1, C2), a connection insertion loss (LC1, LC2) is determined for one or more of the connections (C1, C2) by means a reflectometric measurement, and a total insertion loss (Ltotal) of the optical component (20) is determined together with its one or more connections (C1, C2). The insertion loss (LDUT) of the optical component (20) can then be determined from the determined total insertion loss (Ltotal) and each determined connection insertion loss (LC1, LC2).
