Delivery includes a spring-loaded mechanical protection cover within the fiber connector
and a dummy connector. It is recommended that you remove the dummy connector to
connect a fiber only when the device is switched off. Avoid any direct eye contact with
the other fiber end.

Tips for Operation
i
Handle the optical fiber cable with extreme caution. Please note the following:
•
Never kink the optical fiber cable. This will permanently damage the cable.
•
Do not fall short of the minimum bending radius when laying the optical fiber ca-
ble. This may impact performance.
Minimum bending radius: 30 mm (fixed), 40 mm (permanent flexible)
Leave the optical fiber cable connected; avoid frequent connecting and disconnect-
ing to prevent dust from damaging the mating connector.
Do not touch, contaminate or scratch the polished exit portal of the fiber (face of
the ceramic ferrule). Clean only using pure alcohol and a cleaning cloth for optical
surfaces.
The connector cannot be repolished. Re-confectioning or a new cable will be required.
