Cleaning the OTDR Connector

Note

Typically, the OTDR connector requires cleaning
only if it has been touched.

Use a dry, optical-grade wipe to clean the OTDR
connector. Figure 13 shows how to remove the OTDR
adapter to access the connector ferrule.

The OTDR port connection quality screen helps you
determine when the OTDR connector needs cleaning. See
page 30.

If the connector is very dirty, wipe the end of the ferrule
with an optical-grade wipe lightly moistened with 99 %-
pure isopropyl alcohol. Dry with a dry wipe.
