Cleaning LC/SC/MPO-24 Connectors
Under normal circumstances the cleaning of the LC/SC/MPO-24 connector
is not required. However if the connector shows signs of debris or
contamination, cleaning may be required.
To clean a LC/SC/MPO-24 connector
1. Use a clean dry air (CDA) or a air gun to blow out the dust or
contamination.
2. Re-inspect the connector. For MPO-24 optical connector, re-inspect the
connector under magnification to make sure that it is clean.
3. If the connector is still not clean, use a commercial cleaner
recommended by the SFP/SFP+/XFP/CFP/CFP2 manufacturer.
Note: Refer to the transceiver manufacturer for more detailed cleaning
recommendations and instructions.
