Cleaning EUI Connectors
Regular cleaning of EUI connectors will help maintain optimum
performance. There is no need to disassemble the unit.
To clean EUI connectors:
1.
Remove the EUI from the instrument to expose the connector
baseplate and ferrule.
2.
Moisten a 2.5 mm cleaning tip with
one drop
of isopropyl alcohol
(alcohol may leave traces if used abundantly).
3.
Slowly insert the cleaning tip into the EUI adapter until it comes out on
the other side (a slow clockwise rotating movement may help).

If any damage occurs to internal connectors, the module casing will
have to be opened and a new calibration will be required.

ARNING
Looking into the optical connector while the light source is active
WILL result in permanent eye damage. EXFO strongly recommends
to TURN OFF the unit before proceeding with the cleaning
procedure.
