Monthly Maintenance: Randomly inspect fiber optic cable connections, test backbone fiber optic link attenuation, and clean connector end faces. This is the latest revision of a Recommendation that was first published in 1996. However, they are also sensitive to dust, dirt, scratches, and other environmental factors that can. Small oil micro-deposits and dust particles on fiber optic cable optical surfaces may cause a loss of light or degraded signal power which may ultimately cause intermittent problems in the optical connection.
