Abstract We describe measurements in which the radiative losses from a multimode fibre have been resolved into three components. These are the Rayleigh Scatter component from the material, the loss by tunnelling from the modes closest to cut-off into the surrounding material, and the forward scatter loss caused by imperfections in the fibre that are large compared to a wavelength.
