Home / Inspecting Fiber Optic Cable Junction Boxes
The procedures in this document describe basic inspection techniques and processes of cleaning for fiber optic cables, bulkheads, and adapters used in fiber optic connections. There are three main principles that needs to be taken in consideration for an efficient optical connection: a perfect core alignment, perfect physical contact and dirt-free connectors. They define a minimum baseline of quality and workmanshi for installing electrical products and systems. Visual inspection is the only way to determine if fiber connectors are truly clean before mating them.
