Whether the light source overfills or underfills the fiber, mode content of long-length multimode fiber systems generally settle to steady-state conditions, also known as equilibrium mode distribution(EMD), after about 1 km to 2 km from the light source. Insertion-loss readings taken a short distance away from the source can be considerably different from insertion-loss readings 1 km or 2 km away from the source, which can also be misleading. 3, record 1, English, - equilibrium%20mode%20distribution
