A. Breakoutbox - Cleaning the chassis (front side)
Tools:
?
Cleaning fluid FOCD-CF or 99% isopropyl alcohol (IPA)
?
Lint free dry wipes FOCD-DW for fiber cleaning
?
DRY-Cleaner FOCD-DC125 for opticalCON DUO & QUAD
®
?
DRY-Cleaner FOCD-DCM for opticalCON MTP
The primary concern with using IPA is that it be removed completely from the LC connector.
If the alcohol is allowed to evaporate slowly of the ferrule, it can leave residual material on the fiber
core or cladding.
Open the breakout box and clean the surface
with a lint free wipe FOCD-DW.
Remove dust cap and insert the tip of the dry
cleaner FOCD-DCM.
Guide the tip of the dry cleaner into the chassis
housing.
Rotate the plastic wheel to start the cleaning
procedure. An endless lint free tape removes
dust particle on the ferrule surface of the MTP
connector on the rear of the chassis.
After cleaning procedure, remove dry cleaner
and cover the tip with the dust cap.
