Fiber optic transceivers are sensitive optical devices that need to be handled carefully. If dirt
collects on the fiber optic lens, you may notice that the LED for an ATM port link status
does not light. You may also notice degraded performance of that port, indicated by an
increase in the physical layer statistics count for that port.

To prevent dust from collecting on the fiber optic lens, keep the dust covers on the ports at
all times when they are not in use. To clean a fiber optic lens, follow the procedure below:
all times when they are not in use. To clean a fiber optic lens, follow the procedure below:
1 Remove any accumulated dust or debris from the port or connector by blowing off all
surfaces with a canned air duster.
2 Compressed gas is recommended, such as Chemtronics’ Ultrajet ® or the Triangle Tool
Group’s Liqui-Too!™ Dust-A-Way. Do not use commercial compressed air or “house
air” because of the risk of oil contamination.

3 Reconnect the cable to the port to see if the dusting corrected the problem.
4 If the LED still does not appear, or if it lights yellow, continue with steps 5 and 6.
5 Gently wipe the ports with a lint-free, non-abrasive, non-adhesive swab. Microswabs™
by Texwipe™ are recommended.
6 Gently wipe the connectors with a lint-free, non-abrasive wipe or pad. Texwipe™ pads
are recommended.
