| Term (EN) | cutback technique | 
|---|
| Definition (EN) | A technique for measuring certain optical fibre transmission characteristics, such as attenuation and bandwidth, by performing two transmission measurements; one measurement is made at the output of the full length of the fibre and the other is made at the output of a short length of the same fibre, access being gained by "cutting back" the fibre being measured, without changing the launching conditions. |

| Term (SR) | tehnika redukcije | 
|---|
| Definition (SR) | Tehnika za mjerenje određenih prenosnih karakteristika optičkih vlakana, kao što su slabljenje i propusni opseg, izvodeći dva mjerenja prenosa; jedno mjerenje se vrši na izlazu pune dužine vlakana, a drugo na izlazu skraćene dužine istog vlakna, pristup se dobija "redukovanjem" vlakna koje se mjeri, bez promjene uslova lansiranja. |
