Cleaning Optical Connectors
Fiber optic connectors on the cable come pre-terminated should be clean and capped,
so one can usually remove the cap and make the connection without cleaning the
connector, but, if there is any doubt it is good practice to clean the optical connectors
before making the connection. Once the connection is made, there should be no need
clean the connector as long as the connector remains connected.
The fiber ends can be damaged by the insertion of contaminated connectors. Some
types of customer damage to connectors are not covered under warranty. Fiber
connectors should never be left uncovered. Pre-packaged alcohol wipes are a
convenient means of cleaning optical connectors. Clean alcohol and lint free wipes,
such as Kim-Wipe type 34155, or swabs may also be used.

More sophisticated fiber optic connector cleaners, such as the Senko SmartCleaner
(SCK-SC-250) are very effective for cleaning external and internal fiber optic
connectors.
