Handling, safety, and environmental guidelines

Before you install an SFP, read the following handling, safety, and environmental guidelines:
SFPs are static sensitive. For more information about how to prevent damage from
electrostatic discharge (ESD), see Electrostatic discharge prevention on page 10.
Dust contamination can reduce the performance of optical parts in SFPs. When you store
an SFP, or after you disconnect it from a fiber optic cable, always keep a dust cover over
the optical bore.
Dispose of this product according to all national laws and regulations.

Safety and equipment care information

Electrostatic discharge prevention

To prevent equipment damage, observe the following electrostatic discharge (ESD)
precautions when you handle or install the components.
Ground yourself and the equipment to an earth or building ground. Use a grounded
workbench mat (or foam that dissipates static charge) and a grounding wrist strap. The
wrist strap must touch the skin and be grounded through a one megaohm resistor.
Do not touch anyone who is not grounded.
Leave all components in their ESD-safe packaging until installation, and use only a staticshielding bag for all storage, transport, and handling.
Clear the area of synthetic materials such as polyester, plastic, vinyl, or styrofoam
because these materials carry static electricity that damages the equipment.

Care of fiber optic equipment

You must keep fiber optic equipment connections clean and damage-free. Use the information
in this section to properly maintain and care for fiber optic equipment.

Fiber optic cable care

Fiber optic cable care

Although the glass fiber in fiber optic cable is protected with reinforcing material and plastic
insulation, it is subject to damage. Use the following precautions to avoid damaging the glass
fiber.
Do not kink, knot, or vigorously flex the cable.
Do not bend the cable to less than a 40 mm radius.
Do not stand on fiber optic cable; keep the cable off the floor.
Do not pull fiber optic cable harder than you do a cable containing copper wire of
comparable size.
Do not allow a static load of more than a few pounds on a section of the cable.
Place protective caps on fiber optic connectors that are not in use.
Store unused fiber optic patch cables in a cabinet, on a cable rack, or flat on a shelf.
Frequent overstressing of fiber optic cable causes progressive degeneration that leads to
failure.
If you suspect damage to a fiber optic cable, either due to mishandling or an abnormally high
error rate observed in one direction, reverse the cable pairs. If the high error rate appears in
the other direction, replace the cable.
Caution:
Risk of equipment damage
Do not crush fiber optic cable. If fiber optic cable is in the same tray or duct with large, heavy
electrical cables, it can be damaged by the weight of the electrical cable.

Fiber optic connector care

Before connecting fiber optic connectors to transmission equipment, test equipment, patch
panels, or other connectors, ensure fiber optic connectors are clean. The performance of an
optical fiber connector depends on how clean the connector and coupling are at the time of
connection.
A damaged or dirty connector can damage a connector with which it pairs. A connector must
be absolutely clean before you insert it into a transmitter or receiver.
Never clean an optical connector while it carries light. Optical power can cause ignition of the
cleaning material when it contacts the end of the optical connector and destroy the connector.

Safety and equipment care information

Typical cleaning materials, for example, tissues saturated with alcohol, combust almost
instantaneously after you expose them to optical power levels of +15 dBm or higher.
Visually inspect the connector to determine cleanliness and to determine if it needs replacing.
You must replace a connector that has a scratch across the core, or a scratch that appears to
end in the core.
The proper connector cleaning method depends on the connector contaminants:
Judge cleanliness by visual inspection with a fiber microscope. First inspect the
connector, and then clean as required.
Warning:
Risk of eye injury
When you inspect a connector, ensure that light sources are off. The light source in
fiber optic cables can damage your eyes.
If you suspect only the possibility of dust particles (for example, which can occur when
you leave a connector uncapped in a clean environment), use high-quality canned air or a
reel cleaner, for example, a Cletop, to clean the connector. A reel cleaner is a good choice
to ensure that no dust contaminates the connector.
If the connector is visibly dirty or you suspect it to be contaminated by chemicals (for
example, matching gel), use high-quality alcohol and canned air to clean the connector.
This method is the most thorough cleaning method. In some cases, a reel cleaner can
suffice.
The more surface manipulation you apply to the connector, the more likely the connector is to
become damaged.
When you insert a connector ferrule into a connector or adapter, ensure that the ferrule tip
does not touch the outside of the mating connector or adapter. This can produce scratches
and dirt deposits on the connector.
To help prevent connectors from collecting dust, cover them when not in use. To avoid the
transfer of oil or other contaminants from your fingers to the end face of the ferrule, handle
connectors with care. Do not touch the connector end face.

Cleaning single connectors

Clean connectors so that the optical signal is minimally attenuated by the connector.
This procedure is appropriate when you suspect more than dust contamination.

Prerequisites
You need a lens-grade, lint-free tissue, or example, Kimwipes.
You need an optical-grade isopropyl alcohol (IPA) (98% or more pure).

12

Installation SFPs

October 2010

Cleaning duplex connectors

You need a high-quality canned compressed air with extension tube.

Compressed air must be free of dust, water, and oil, or filmy deposits or scratches on the
surface of the connector can result.
You need a fiber optic microscope to inspect connectors.
Warning:
Risk of eye injury
When inspecting a connector, ensure that light sources are off. The light source used in fiber
optic cables can damage your eyes.
To avoid getting debris in your eyes, wear safety glasses when working with the canned air
duster.
To avoid eye irritation on contact, wear safety glasses when working with isopropyl alcohol.

Procedure steps
1. Remove dust or debris by applying canned air to the cylindrical and end-face
surfaces of the connector.
2. Gently wipe the cylindrical and end-face surfaces with a tissue dampened with
optical-grade isopropyl alcohol.
3. Gently wipe the cylindrical and end-face surfaces with a dry tissue.
Important:
Do not let the IPA evaporate; wipe it dry immediately. Alcohols can leave a residue
that is difficult to remove.
4. Dry the connector surfaces by applying canned air.
5. Inspect the connector to ensure it is clean and undamaged.
To prevent contamination, do not touch the connector surfaces after cleaning; and
cover connectors with dust caps if you are not going to use them right away.

2. Remove dust or debris by applying canned air to the cylindrical and end-face
surfaces of the connector.
3. Gently wipe the cylindrical and end-face surfaces of both ferrules using a tissue
saturated with optical-grade isopropyl alcohol.
4. Gently wipe the cylindrical and end-face surfaces with a dry tissue.
Important:
Do not let the IPA evaporate; wipe it dry immediately. Alcohols can leave a residue
that is difficult to remove.
5. Blow dry the connector surfaces with canned air.
6. Inspect the connector to ensure it is clean and undamaged.
7. Using care to not touch the clean ferrules, gently push the shroud back onto the
connector until it seats and locks in place.
