Dual-Fiber PCF Cable, 200/230 µm, NA 0.37, 8.4 mm Black
AT-VY(ZN)Y 2-Core PCF Fiber Cable, 200/230 µm, 8.4 mm Black. Two plastic clad silica fibers for industrial automation and short-range data links. OEM/ODM from Changzhou Jinshang.
The AT-VY(ZN)Y dual-fiber PCF cable carries two 200/230 µm plastic-clad silica fibers at NA 0.37 in a rugged 8.4 mm black jacket for protected industrial optical routing.
Product Overview
The cross-section shows two fibers supported by strength and protective layers inside a round outer sheath. Plastic-clad silica (PCF) combines a glass core with a polymer cladding, suiting industrial sensing and light delivery. It is part of our industrial fiber range.
Confirm detailed material, temperature, tensile, bend and environmental requirements before specification.

Performance & Reliability
The 200 µm cores support efficient coupling from compatible LED, laser or sensor optics, while the protective structure improves handling strength and environmental isolation. Link performance depends on wavelength, launch conditions, bend radius, length and connector termination.
Customization & Ordering
Specify length, connectors and any temperature/tensile requirement. We confirm the detailed material and environmental ratings for the build. All assemblies are terminated, end-face inspected and individually tested before dispatch. Send your drawing, connector pair, fiber type and target volume, and our engineers will return a configuration, sample plan and lead time. Contact our sales team for OEM/ODM support.
FAQ
Q: What is PCF?
A: Plastic-clad silica fiber has a glass core with a polymer cladding – a large-core, robust option for industrial sensing and light delivery.
Q: What does NA 0.37 mean?
A: A 0.37 numerical aperture describes the fiber’s light-gathering ability, important for coupling to LEDs and large emitters.
Q: Is it suitable for long data links?
A: PCF is typically used for short-reach sensing, control and light delivery rather than long high-bandwidth data.
