A system for cleaning internal optical components of a fiber optic connector includes a source of cleaning medium such as compressed air connected to a cleaning tip. The cleaning tip has a body and a tongue that is configured to be inserted into the end of the fiber optic connector. Nozzles are formed on the tongue. The tongue may have features to open shutters and/or other protective features in the connector that normally protect the internal optical components. When the tongue is inserted into the end of the connector, the nozzles are positioned adjacent optical components to be cleaned and compressed air is delivered through the nozzles to clean the components. Backwash can be exhausted around the tongue or through the tongue to eject contaminants from the fiber optic connector.
