Appendix A: Cleaning Fiber Optic Connectors

Overview

The fiber optic connector consists of a fiber optic plug and its adapter. The

end of the fiber optic cable is held in the core of the ferrule in the plug.

Light signals are transmitted through the core of the fiber. Even minor

smudges or dirt on the end face of the fiber, completely invisible to the

naked eye, can disrupt light transmission and lead to failure of the

component or of the entire system. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to

clean all fiber optic connectors before use.
