Dirty connector
It is very important that the connectors are cleaned prior to any connection.
Otherwise, dust and moister can be deposited in the interrogator's optical
adaptors, which will compromise measurements. In
a picture of a
magnified connector is presented. The dark gray circle corresponds to the fiber
cladding and the small light gray circle is the core of the fiber. One picture of a
clean connector and one picture of a dirty connector are presented.

Magnified view of a clean and a dirty connector
The most common effect of dirt on the connections is a large amount of broad
band light being reflected at the connection, in both directions, meaning that
the dynamic range for measurements becomes smaller.
