About Insertion Loss:

Insertion loss is a measurement of the light lost as it
passes through two connectors aligned with a mating adapter.
Excess light loss generally comes from the fiber cores not being
aligned. This mis-alignment can be caused by the connector
ferrules or the mating adapter Ceramic / Brass sleeve if the
mechanical tolerances are not controlled.
