Standard MT and PrizmMT Cable Precautions
Be aware of the following considerations for storing, connecting, and removing standard MT
and PrizmMT cables:
■
Whenever cables are not in use, put a dust cap on each end to prevent dust and debris from
accumulating.
■
Before connecting the cable:
■
Clean every connection, both sides, every time the connection is to be mated. Even
when the dust caps are in place, dust or debris may have been inside the dust cap from a
prior use, then transfer onto the ferrule.
■
Check the keying of the connector and the keying of the port. The raised rectangular
feature on the housing gives you a visual indication of how the cable and port will mate.
■
Check for a white dot on the cable housing to help you determine how the cable should
be inserted into the port. For any vertical receptacle, the white dot must be facing down.
■
When connecting a cable:
■
Do not attempt to defeat the internal shutters on the ports because you can possibly
damage the cable's ferrule.
■
Ensure the tip of the ferrule does not forcefully contact the edges of the ports or your
risk damaging the equipment. Instead, carefully insert the tip of the ferrule into the
center of the port.
