Fiber attenuation coefficient is defined as a measure of how much optical power is lost per unit length of optical fiber, primarily due to factors such as absorption, scattering, and radiation losses.

Loss is a length multiplier, so a 200 ft length would have twice the loss shown above and a 50 ft length would have half the loss. This multiplier factor is why you should keep cable installation lengths
