I don't know the answer (your reasoning sounds persuasive), but seriously are saying "Grok this" now instead of "Google this"?
If so, we're starting to sound like cavemen. Or this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbiEPxCto7E From: AF <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Adam Moffett Sent: Thursday, August 21, 2025 10:54 AM To: AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group <[email protected]> Subject: [AFMUG] Help me Grok this - tolerance to reflected power Definition from ITU G.987: 3.3.15 tolerance to reflected power (transmitter): A transmitter parameter that characterizes the maximum admissible ratio of the average reflected optical transmit power incident at the transmitter to the average optical transmit power. If my average transmit power is +6dBm and the tolerance to reflected power is -15dB, then 6 - 15 = -9, so reflected power as strong as -9dBm won't harm the transmitter? Is it that easy or am I misunderstanding the definition? -Adam
