2.2.4. Handling and Connecting Fibers
Never touch the end face of an optical fiber. Always keep dust caps on optical fiber
connectors when not connected and always remember to properly clean the optical
end facet of a connector before making a connection.
The transmission characteristics of the fiber are dependent on the shape of the optical core and
therefore care must be taken to prevent fiber damage due to heavy objects or abrupt fiber bending.
Evertz recommends that the user maintain a minimum bending radius of 5 cm to avoid fiber-bending
loss that will decrease the maximum attainable distance of the fiber cable.
