Cletop S, blå tape

Historien om Blå og hvid tape

BLUE OR WHITE TAPE - There are two different color Replacement Tapes available for the Cletop and Cletop-S Cassette Cleaners. The Blue Tape is the original color tape and was the only tape available. It was used on connectors with 2.5mm diameter ferrules such as the FC, ST, and SC. With the introduction of the smaller 1.25mm diameter ferrules such as used in the LC connector and multifiber connectors such as the MPX, there was some concern the smaller geometry connectors might “snag” on the somewhat looser weave of the Blue Tape. Therefore, a smoother White Tape was developed. Over time, with very few exceptions, the looser weave of the Blue Tape turned out to not be a problem for the smaller geometry ferrules. Currently, the selection of Blue or White Tape is primarily user preference.
