Sales Launch of New Multi-Fiber Optic Connector Cleaner with Anti-Electrostatic Discharge October 7, 2024 Fujikura Ltd. Fujikura Ltd. (President and CEO: Naoki Okada) is excited to announce the sales launch of “One-Click™ Cleaner MPO ESD,” an innovative fiber optic connector cleaner. The One-Click™ Cleaner series is our original cleaner for fiber optic connectors that effectively removes oil, grease, and dust from the ferrule*1 end-face of the fiber optic connector with just one click. We have now added a new product line that has been designed with anti-electrostatic discharge. Figure 1. “One-Click™ Cleaner MPO ESD” Key Features: ✔ The cleaner body is made from highly conductive resin, allowing for rapid dissipation of static electricity. ✔ It effectively suppresses static electricity generated on the ferrule end-face during cleaning, reducing the risk of dust attraction. ✔ Suitable for use in ESD (Electro-Static Discharge) protected area and compliant with the international standard for electrostatics, IEC 61340-5-1*2. The "One-Click™ Cleaner MPO ESD" is a cleaner for cleaning MPO multi-fiber optic connectors that has a function to prevent ESD (Electro-Static Discharge). It is the first product for fiber optic connector cleaners that complies with IEC 61340-5-1. This cutting-edge device effectively mitigates static electricity on the connector's end-face during the cleaning process, thereby preventing the movement of dust caused by static charges. It is particularly well-suited for optical transceivers sensitive to static electricity and fiber optic connectivity that demands exceptional low-loss performance. Elevating cleaning regimen with the “One-Click™ Cleaner MPO ESD” ensures optimal operational integrity. As the demand for generative AI increases and data centers are being constructed at a rapid pace around the world, we will continue to contribute to the improvement of workability in optical fiber communications construction and the deployment of high-quality optical fiber networks. New Product Specifications: Product Name One-Click™ Cleaner MPO ESD Model Number MPOESD-CLK-A Applicable Connector MPO 12/24 fibers, SM/MM Dimensions (mm)(Excluding guide cap) W19 x H43.5 x L194 Cleaning Times ≥ 500 times Surface Resistance (Ω) < 1 x 1012 IEC 61340-5-1 Charge Decay (sec) < 2 IEC 61340-5-1 * One-Click™ is a trademark of Fujikura Ltd. *1 Ferrule The name of the key connecting part for optical fibers inside the fiber optic connector. Even tiny contamination invisible to the naked eye can affect transmission characteristics, so the ferrule end-face must be cleaned with the fiber optic connector cleaner before mating. *2 IEC 61340-5-1 The international standard for electrostatics. It requires a surface resistance value less than 1 x 1012 Ω and aims to reduce the effects of static electricity on manufactured products such as electronic components.
