Always clean and inspect the endfaces in fiber connectors before
you make connections. Fluke Networks recommends that you use
a mechanical device, such as the Fluke Networks Quick Clean
Cleaner, to clean connectors on network equipment. If you do not
have such a device, if the device does not clean the connector
sufficiently, or when you clean connectors on test reference cords,
use other optical-grade supplies such as wipes and solvent.
Figure 34 shows the equipment you use to clean and inspect fiber
endfaces.

To prevent possible eye damage caused by
hazardous radiation:
•
Do not look directly into optical connectors. Some
optical equipment emits invisible radiation that can
cause permanent damage your eyes.
•
Before you clean an endface, turn off any optical
sources (laser or LED) that are connected to the
fiber.
•
When you inspect endfaces, use only magnification
devices that have the correct filters.
W
To prevent damage to connectors and to keep
contamination off of endfaces:
•
Always cover unused connectors and adapters with
protective caps.
•
Always keep unused protective caps in a clean,
sealed container to prevent contamination.
