Guidelines for handling terminated fiber cable
"
•
Do not bend fiber cable sharply. Use gradual and smooth bends to avoid damaging glass fiber.
•
Keep dust caps on fiber optic connectors at all times when disconnected.
•
Do not remove dust caps from unused fiber.
•
Keep fiber ends and fiber connectors clean and free from dust, dirt and debris. Contamination will cause
signal loss.
•
Do not touch fiber ends.
•
Store excess fiber on housing spools or fiber spools at site
