Block The Dirty Fiber to Damage SFP
SFP is the core component of electro-optic conversion.
Once a dirty connector is inserted, it can cause damage or permanent dirty, the source of dirt could be grease, gravel and dust. So, design of a buffer device on panel is necessary as loss and risk of the buffer zone.
Each time two female connectors mating will cause 0.6dB loss,
equivalent to reduce 375m@ 1300nm wavelength, multi-mode fiber
170m@ 850nm wavelength.
So, selecting single-mode light source will be a better choice! You may get better margins for the system.
