5.3Maintenance

The Model 6002/3/4 is designed to perform at specified performance levels. Damaged fiber cables and dirty connectors are a common source of signal loss or link attenuation. Single mode optical fibers should be checked frequently. Inspect and test all suspect components to maintain optimal system performance levels.

As a rule, whenever there is a significant, unexplained light loss, check the fiber cable and the connectors for potential problems. Remove and inspect optical connectors, be careful not to damage the fiber end-face surface or the connector housing. Do not force or over tighten the FC/PC connectors.

Note: It is important to clean the fiber connectors before reinstalling them. Use the protective dust covers on unused or disconnected components to prevent damage or contamination.

Clean the end-surfaces of fiber cables and connectors with a fiber optics cleaning kit. The ferrules and end-face surfaces of fiber components must be kept clean and free of contaminants to function within the established parameters.

Note: Special fiber optics cleaning swabs and lint-free cloth pads saturated with reagent grade Isopropyl alcohol may also be used to clean optical components.

For additional information on cleaning and connecting fiber optic cables refer to Chapter 2.

Cable management and identification markers should receive a high priority to ensure trouble- free maintenance tasks. Properly maintained components will assure optimal system operation.
