Which handling precaution applies to plastic optical fibre?

  • A.Keep it dry only
  • B.Respect the minimum bend radius and keep the connector faces clean, since either fault attenuates the signal severely
  • C.Avoid tight bends and contamination of the end faces
  • D.None, since the fibre is protected by its sheath and is therefore insensitive to the manner in which it is routed

Answer: C

A tight bend or a dirty end face attenuates the light and the link fails. The last option states both precautions explicitly, which makes it a correct and fuller version of the same answer. A symptom that appears under one condition and not another is what narrows the diagnosis quickly. Reading the definition literally, rather than recalling a summary, avoids the usual confusion. Checking which component actually carries the load settles most questions of this kind at once.
