More DescriptionThis title is the second edition promised to update "The Need to Precision Clean All Fiber Optic Connections". It is based on feedback from readers of the original work who are seeking more information. The author will update your original purchase to this edition at a 25% discount. You must contact the author directly for details if you desire this accommodation. In this work the reader will learn about 'the sciences of debris', commonly ignored and misunderstood segments of all fiber optic connections and how improperly cleaning them influences service.The author has uniquely categorized the fiber optic connector and contamination in three dimensions. While this may not seem significant, indeed it is a new awareness as existing standards see not only the fiber optic connection in a two dimensional horizontal plain, but also dry debris and fluidic contamination in only two dimensions. Existing studies are based on international standards in place for more than twenty years. The author poses that standards are often published and not revisited for ten or more years. The pace of fiber optic technology obsoletes these standards nearly at the time of publication. To remedy this the author suggests annual standard review, internal standardization, and an open forum that enables inputs from segments other than manufacturers with commercial interests. There are more than one hundred (100) photographs of tests and comparative tests of four popular "probe tools", four commonly used "swab tools" and the newest categories of "cleaning platforms" and "reel cleaners".The work has important updates for trainers, teachers, technicians and designers.
