Step 3
Any excess fiber protruding from
the connector end may be cut off;
however, the trimmed fiber
should extend at least 1.5 mm
(0.06 in) from the connector end.
Insert the connector fully into the
polishing fixture with the trimmed
fiber protruding from the bottom
of the fixture. This plastic polish-
ing fixture can be used to polish
two simplex connectors or simplex
latching connectors simultane-
ously, or one duplex connector.
Note: The four dots on the
bottom of the polishing fixture
are wear indicators. Replace
the polishing fixture when any
dot is no longer visible.
Typically, the polishing fixture
can be used 10 times; 10 duplex
connectors or 20 simplex
connectors, two at a time.
Place the 600 grit abrasive paper
on a flat smooth surface, pressing
down on the connector, polish the
fiber and the connector using a
figure eight pattern of strokes
until the connector is flush with
the bottom of the polishing
fixture. Wipe the connector and
fixture with a clean cloth or
tissue.
Step 4
Place the flush connector and
polishing fixture on the dull side
of the 3 m pink lapping film and
continue to polish the fiber and
connector for approximately 25
strokes. The fiber end should be
flat, smooth and clean.
This cable is now ready for use.
Note: Use of the pink lapping
film fine polishing step results
in approximately 2 dB
improvement in coupling
performance of either a
transmitter-receiver link or a
bulkhead/splice over a 600 grit
polish alone. This fine polish is
comparable to the Avago
factory polish. The fine
polishing step may be omitted
where an extra 2 dB of optical
power is not essential, as with
short link lengths. Proper
polishing of the tip of the fiber/
connector face results in a tip
diameter between 2.5 mm
(0.098 in.) minimum and 3.2
mm (0.126 in.) maximum..
