Clean the TX side only if it has the same appearance as a 

fiber (picture on far left).  The RX side of SFP should not be 

cleaned, just inspected to make certain there are no large 

obstructions.  Remove the entire aqua blue cap from the pen 

to clean the SFP or a bulkhead (see below)

To inspect ODC fibers, the BAP-3 

Barrel assembly should replace
