Overview
The AFL 8500-05-0015MZ Push-Type One-Click Cleaner is a specialized tool designed to clean both ferrule end-faces of a duplex CS/MDC connector simultaneously. By combining cleaning into a single pass, this tool reduces cleaning time, which is essential for high-density network environments where these connectors are commonly deployed.
This device features a precise mechanical action that removes contaminants such as dust, oils, and dirt particulates. The cleaner automatically advances the internal cleaning tape to ensure a fresh surface for every use and provides an audible click to confirm the cleaning process is complete. Its ergonomic design allows for efficient operation in tight, hard-to-reach fiber optic spaces.
