Model is designed for optical connectors using 1.25mm ferrules, the most known connectors being LC and MU type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA cleaning pen has a one-time use cleaning band that swipes the critical contact surface of the optical connector. The process is completely mechanical. A single press would allow the cleaning tape to swipe the contact area and eliminate most foreign particles that would cause communications issues. This is also known as a one-click cleaning pen. RB-PEN125 is intended for use with optical female connectors of LC and MU type. They can be active equipment connectors or couplers in patch panels. Cleaning fiber contact surfaces is a necessity in fiber optic deployments. Dust can settle into the optical connectors during maintenance and installation of fiber circuits, sometimes with serious effects. A single dust particle in the wrong place can stop a long-haul fiber link and sometimes even damage the optical gear because of reflections that could damage optical contact surfaces permanently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RB-PEN125 has an estimated capacity of 800 cleaning cycles. It has an indicator when cleaning tape is exhausted and also an extender of the cleaning arm for hard-to-reach connectors. The pen comes with a small translucent cap that can be used to clean also male 1.25mm ferrules when needed, although for regular male-type connectors a cleaning cassette is recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1026\/4509\/files\/RB-PEN125.pdf?v=1632249711\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eProduct Specification Sheet\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fosco Connect","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49084384706816,"sku":"RB-PEN125","price":54.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0388\/5331\/2557\/files\/RB-PEN125.jpg?v=1785212980","url":"https:\/\/alotechparts.com\/products\/rb-pen125-fiber-optic-cleaning-pen-for-lc-and-mu-connectors-125mm-ferrules-800-cycles","provider":"Alo Tech Solutions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
