As Dave C pointed out, it commonly referenced as a Fiber Span. The fiber
span would be inclusive of any splice points and/or patches needed to
provide connectivity between point A and point Z.
A Fiber Stand is a single piece of glass within the cable sheath, often
spliced to create a fiber span.
+1 on span along with fiber count designation.

FWIW, at my $dayjob (a fiber-based service provider), the accepted term is
"span", which accounts for any continuous segment between add/drop and/or
regen locations (i.e. no provider or end user electronics in the middle,
only at the endpoints). The most common alternate I come across is
IDK what elsewhere uses but strand or (less common) span is the common
term I've seen specifically for a passive piece of glass between two
points.

Just my .02 but I would think to call it a "single fiber link" or perhaps
just a "fiber link". A fiber path doesn't strike me as being one solid
connection but could instead include patching in the middle and not be a
continuous strand. As far as fiber loop, that is used to reference the
