Cleaning SC Connectors
Cleaning SC Connectors
Your unit is equipped with an SC connector that can be cleaned using a
mechanical cleaner.
To clean a connector using a mechanical cleaner:
1.
Insert the cleaning tip into the optical adapter, and push the outer shell
into the cleaner.
Note:
The cleaner makes a clicking sound to indicate that the cleaning is done.
2.
Verify connector surface with a fiber inspection probe (for
example, EXFO’s FIP).
Cleaning the Touchscreen
Clean the touchscreen with a soft, non-abrasive cloth, such as one used for
cleaning reading glasses, dampened with water.
W
ARNING
Verifying the surface of the connector with a fiber-optic microscope
WHILE THE UNIT IS ACTIVE WILL result in permanent eye damage.
C
AUTION
Using anything else than water can damage the special coating of
the touchscreen.
