Optical fibre patch cords are handled by the operators and maintenance staff of optical network systems. This document is useful as a guideline to prepare instruction manuals for those involved in optical system maintenance and operation. This document covers fibre optic connector plugs, optical adaptors, optical receptacles (excluding optical transceivers) and dust caps. Guidelines for fibre optic connector end-face cleaning methods for receptacle style optical transceivers are covered in IEC TR 62572-4. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2016. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
- addition of cleaning tools for adhesive pad type and adhesive pen type in terms and definitions (Clause 3), in information (7.5 and 7.6), in fibre optic connectors and their applicable cleaning tools (Table 1 and Clause 8) and procedures (9.5, 9.6 and 9.7);
