FAQ
Why is the cable orange?
Orange is the standard color for automotive MOST-grade plastic optical fiber; it identifies the cable in vehicle harnesses and separates it from other wiring.
What does PA12 mean?
PA12 is polyamide 12 (nylon 12), a flexible, chemical-resistant jacket used in automotive-grade POF because it withstands under-hood and cabin conditions better than plain PVC.
What data rate is this cable rated for?
The supplier docx references MOST150 up to 150 Mbps; the cable itself is the physical POF layer. Confirm the link budget and transceivers for your specific MOST generation.
