On removable shroud connectors, hold the shroud on the top and bottom at the
letter designation, apply medium pressure, and then pull it free from the connector
body. Do not discard the shroud.
OR
On retractable shroud connectors, hold the shroud in the retracted position.
2. Remove dust or debris by applying canned air to the cylindrical and end-face
surfaces of the connector.
3. Gently wipe the cylindrical and end-face surfaces of both ferrules using a tissue
saturated with optical-grade isopropyl alcohol.
4. Gently wipe the cylindrical and end-face surfaces with a dry tissue.
Important:
Do not let the IPA evaporate; wipe it dry immediately. Alcohols can leave a residue
that is difficult to remove.
5. Blow dry the connector surfaces with canned air.
6. Inspect the connector to ensure it is clean and undamaged.
7. Using care to not touch the clean ferrules, gently push the shroud back onto the
connector until it seats and locks in place.
Cleaning receptacles
Clean connector receptacles or ports so that the optical signal is minimally attenuated by the
connection.
Before you begin
• You need an optical-grade isopropyl alcohol (IPA) (98% or more pure).
• You need cleaning swabs (also called cleaning sticks or wands).
• You need a high-quality canned compressed air with extension tube.
Compressed air must be free of dust, water, and oil, or filmy deposits or scratches on the
surface of the connector can result.
Caution:
Risk of equipment damage
To avoid contamination, only clean optical ports if you see evidence of contamination or
reduced performance exists, or during their initial installation.
To prevent oil contamination of connectors, use only high-quality canned compressed air.
