Fiber Preparation
Placing Protection Sleeve over Fiber
Place the protection sleeve over the ber. Clean optical ber with alcohol-soaked gauze
or lint-free tissue approximately 100 mm (4 in) from the tip.
Note: Splice-on connectors are pre-cleaved. Do not attempt to clean the ber on the
splice-on connector. Follow the instructions supplied with the splice-on connectors.
• Clean optical ber with alcohol-soaked gauze or lint-free tissue. Dust particulates
can enter the protection sleeve, resulting in a ber break or attenuation increase.
• Make sure ber is passed through the protection sleeve.
• When protection sleeve core tube is longer than the length of outer sheath, cut off
excess sleeve to avoid micro bend after heating.
Failure to observe these precautions may result in injury and may damage the unit.
