You will need ber optic test jumpers to connect instruments to the ber optic system under test.
A test jumper must have the same core and cladding size as the ber under test. The connector at
one end of the test jumper must mate with the optical port on each instrument. The connector on
the other end must mate with the ber optic system under test.
A Connector adapter is required to mate ber optic test jumpers.
Optical ports and connector end faces must be kept free from dirt or other contaminates to
ensure accurate measurements and operation.
For cleaning connector end faces on light sources, test jumpers, and in ber frames or adapters,
use optical quality cleaning uid such as AFL FCC2 connector cleaning uid and AFL CCT molded
cleaning tips.
For cleaning an optical power meter port and adapter caps, use lint-free optical cleaning wipes
such as AFL FiberWipes and optical quality cleaning uid such as AFL FCC2 connector cleaning
uid (or IPA - Reagent Grade Isopropyl Alcohol 99% or better) and a can of ltered compressed
air.
