• Frequent plugging and unplugging of ber-opc cables in and out of opcal instruments can damage
the instruments, which are expensive to repair. Aach a short ber extension to the opcal
equipment. Any wear and tear due to frequent plugging and unplugging is then absorbed by the
short ber extension, which is easier and less expensive to replace than the instruments.
• Keep ber-opc cable connecons clean. Microdeposits of oil and dust in the canal of the transceiver
or cable connector can cause loss of light, reducon in signal power, and possibly intermient
problems with the opcal connecon.
To clean the transceiver canal, use an appropriate ber-cleaning device such as RIFOCS Fiber Opc
Adaptor Cleaning Wands (part number 946). Follow the direcons in the cleaning kit you use.
Aer cleaning the transceiver, make sure that the connector p of the ber-opc cable is clean. Use
only an approved alcohol-free ber-opc cable cleaning kit such as the Cletop-S® Fiber Cleaner.
Follow the direcons in the cleaning kit you use.
