How to clean the expanded beam connector?
This instruction covers the cleaning procedure for the expanded beam (EB) connectors and its optical interface (mating face, optical path lenses, EB insert and alignment features). These connectors are non-contacting; therefore, mating the connector without cleaning first typically will not cause permanent damage to the optic interface.
What is an Expanded Beam Connector?
The fiber optic technology allows a large amount of data to be transferred with low insertion loss even in harsh environments, without risk of damage to the fiber. The Expanded Beam Connector is used in several harsh environments such as mining, transportation systems, outside broadcasting, offshore and subsea, and in different types of industries.
