Unlike electrical signals, light in a fiber optic cable carries data as photons, and its power is a precious, finite resource. At every interface, especially at the separable connection points, light is vulnerable to loss. This is why achieving and maintaining extremely low insertion loss in fiber optic connectors is not merely a desirable specification; it is the foundational requirement that dictates the feasibility, cost, and performance of the entire optical link.
