Does the bend radius for optical fiber cables specifies how much the cable can be coiled before the attenuation degrades the signal?

The bend radius for optical fiber cables plays a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of the signal being transmitted. It specifies the maximum allowable curvature that the cable can endure without degrading the signal quality. When a cable is bent beyond its specified bend radius, the attenuation of the signal increases, resulting in a
