Processplug

This transceiver is supplied with a process plug for

protection of the optical port within the LC connector

receptacle. This process plug prevents contamina-

tion during wave solder and aqueous rinse as well as

during handling, shipping and storage. It is made of a

high-temperature, molded sealing material that can

withstand +85 °C, and a rinse pressure of 110 lbs per

square inch.

The process plug should only be used once. After

removing it from the transceiver, it must not be used

again as a process plug; however, if it has not been con-

taminated it can be reused as a dust cover.

RecommendedSolderfluxes

Solder fluxes used with the AFCT-5961TLZ/TGZ/ATLZ/

ATGZ/NLZ/NGZ should be water-soluble, organic fluxes.

Recommended solder fluxes include Lonco 3355-11

from London Chemical West, Inc. of Burbank, CA, and

100 Flux from Alpha-Metals of Jersey City, NJ.

RecommendedCleaning/DegreasingChemicals

Alcohols: methyl, isopropyl, isobutyl.

Aliphatics: hexane, heptane

Other: naphtha.

Do not use partially halogenated hydrocarbons such as

1,1.1 trichloroethane, ketones such as MEK, acetone,

chloroform, ethyl acetate, methylene dichloride, phenol,

methylene chloride, or N-methylpyrolldone. Also, Avago

Technologies does not recommend the use of cleaners

that use halogenated hydrocarbons because of their

potential environmental harm.

LCSFFCleaningRecommendations

In the event of contamination of the optical ports, the

recommended cleaning process is the use of forced

nitrogen. If contamination is thought to have remained,

the optical ports can be cleaned using a NTT interna-

tional Cletop stick type (diam. 1.25 mm) and HFE7100

cleaning fluid.
