Danger
:
Infrared radiation is invisible and can seriously damage the retina of the eye.
Do not look into the optical bulkhead of an operational transmitter, or into the launching
(output) end of an active fiber. A clean, protective cap or hood MUST be immediately
placed over any radiating bulkhead receptacle or optical fiber connector to avoid
exposure to potentially dangerous amounts of radiation. This practice also helps
prevent contamination of connectors and adapters

Strip the outer sheath of the cable to expose the inner fiber bundles. Clean the cable core
as necessary per local practice. The cable sheath must extend about 0.75 inches (1.9 cm) beyond
the cable clamp. The service loop length shown in Figure 6 includes approximately 30 inches
(76.2 cm) of fiber within the splice tray for splicing. If buffer tubes or fiber protector sleeves are
needed add them at this time.
