Routing and Connecting the Cables
a. If dust caps are installed on the ceramic ferrule tips of each connector, remove
the dust caps.
b. Inspect each fiber-optic cable connector. See Figure 6-3.
•
Make sure the ferrule housing and the ceramic ferrule tip are visible. The
ferrule housing should be at least flush with the connector housing.
•
It is normal for the ferrule housing to slide freely (approximately 2 mm)
within the connector body between the stops designed into the connector
body assembly.
•
If the ferrule housing and ceramic ferrule tip are pushed back inside the
connector body, the connector might be defective, and you should obtain
another cable.
