Use an optical power meter and light source for checking the fiber optic cables
Make sure the environment is clean while connecting/splicing fiber optic cables
All fiber optic connectors should be cleaned prior to connecting to the system
Fiber connector protective caps should be installed on all non-terminated fibers and removed just before they are
terminated.
LC APC connectors ensure that you hear a “click”, indicating a secure connection
Never look directly into the end of a fiber that may be carrying laser light. Laser light can be invisible and can damage your
eyes.
