Yea, a poor splice could cause the levels/snr to drop. Or it could be a bend or something on the fibre when it was put back into the tray. Splicing machines are pretty good at detecting bad splices, and they normally reject the splice request. But that said they aren’t 100%. Could also be something completely unrelated!
