Fiber Optic Connection System
A. Breakoutbox - Cleaning the chassis (front side)
Tools: ? Cleaning fluid FOCD-CF or 99% isopropyl alcohol (IPA)
? Lint free dry wipes FOCD-DW for fiber cleaning
? DRY-Cleaner FOCD-DC125 for opticalCON DUO & QUAD
? DRY-Cleaner FOCD-DCM for opticalCON MTP
The primary concern with using IPA is that it be removed completely from the LC connector.
If the alcohol is allowed to evaporate slowly of the ferrule, it can leave residual material on the fiber
core or cladding.
