1. Optical fibres can easily be damaged by bending or general mishandling. Ensure that the minimum curvature is
never exceeded when handling. Recommended minimum bend radius is 30 mm.
2. Optical fibres are prone to damage by bending local to the connector. Take care that the fibre optic cable has
adequate strain relief/support at the connection and that the routing avoids tight radii.
3. The coupler is not designed to withstand pulling of the fibre- always insert or remove using the connector body.
If the fibre is pulled the system performance could be compromised or the system may fail.
