Excellent app

Great quick calculator for loss budgets when designing optical networks. Used daily!

Kft/miles/etc

Great app, but I usually shoot fibers in kilofeet & then use the app to check my loss. Would love to see kft & miles added to the options. Still worth the price, though. ;)

Works great

Does what I need it to do. Thx. Hope your day is full of 0.0's

Not bad needs more options for wavelength and attenuation

This application isn't bad but it would be good to be able to test or setup other wavelengths for example 1625 which is a wavelength we use at work it would also be nice to be able to adjust formula if testing more complex networks eg PON

Great App!

This app is great overall for calculating budgets on the fly. It would be nice to be able to change from Km to feet in the set-up menu though....

Custom edit function is great!

This is great for those who don't do math.

I like this app because of the "Typ" (Typical) and Custom edit functionality. Also, go advanced, by understanding your connector type limits.

Worth having

This a nice basic app with the appropriate formulas to calculate whether a fibre path is within spec. Now and then I'll splice a path with a fibre mismatch where I can't get a good splice loss. I use this app to check if the path as a whole is in spec despite a single splice having a high loss. Just nice to have to easily calculate when needed
