Cleaning and Inspecting MPO-Type Connectors
Your RTUe-9120 external switch is equipped with unpinned MPO ports
(connectors) that can be cleaned using a multifiber mechanical cleaner.
You can inspect these connectors using a Fiber Inspection Probe
supporting MPO connector configurations (for example, EXFO’s FIP-435B
MF-ready). Each of the switch’s MPO connector has 16 fibers (two rows of
eight fibers).
WARNING
Never look directly into a live fiber. It could cause serious eye
damage. Always use a Fiber Inspection Probe.
WARNING
Before cleaning the connectors, you should suspend the tests to
avoid hazardous radiation exposure.
