NOTE:
To prevent contamination, leave the protective covers in place when the
connectors or ports are not in use.
Do not touch the ends of the fiber optic strands, and do not let the ends come in contact
with dust, dirt, or other contaminants. Contamination of the ends causes problems in
data transmission.
If the ends become contaminated, blow the surfaces clean with a canned duster. A fiber
port cleaning swab saturated with optical-grade isopropyl alcohol may also be used to
clean the ends.
