ANSI APPROVED

INTRODUCTION

Intent

The intent of this document is to provide a standard means forevaluation of systems designed to remove contamination from fiberoptic connector endfaces. This procedure is applicable to allsingle and multi-fiber connector types populated with any fibertype.

Contamination trapped between mating optical connector endfacescan result in the following failure modes:

• Increase in attenuation 

• Increase in return loss

• Permanent polished endface damage due to abrasion

• Permanent polished endface damage due to contaminationresponse during higher power throughput applications

It is beyond the scope of this document to define or specifycleaning systems. This document is applicable to both In-situ(bulkhead) and free connector cleaning systems.

Forms of Contamination

This document addresses some of the most common forms ofcontamination observed in indoor and outdoor optical datatransmission systems.

Oil

Oil which typically is a result of direct contact with humanskin is simulated by an all purpose vegetable oil extracted fromcorn, soybeans, peanuts, cottonseeds, safflower seeds, rape seedsand sunflower seeds.

Solvent Residue

Isopropyl alcohol is a commonly used cleaning fluid for opticalconnectors cleaning and is used to generate solvent residue on theconnector endface.

Mineral Deposits

A saturated solution of water and sodium chloride is used togenerate a mineral deposit residue on the connector endface.

Dust

Airborne particulate matter simulated by ISO Fine Test Dust12103-1 A2 (Test dust for filter evaluation; Arizona Road Dust).Cleaning performance on particulate matter is evaluated with andwithout the connector specimens having been mated.
