Ordering guide
Cut to length and terminate with a compatible F05/Toslink connector. Confirm attenuation against your link budget; the supplier 0.2 dB/km value is unusually low for POF and should be confirmed before design-in.
FAQ
What is PMMA plastic optical fiber used for?
PMMA POF is used for short-range digital audio (Toslink/SPDIF), industrial sensor links, automotive data and home-networking runs where electrical isolation and noise immunity matter. It is not a replacement for glass fiber long-haul links.
Browse our Toslink fiber cable (SPDIF) category, return to the home page, or read the FAQ on H-PCF and POF cable assemblies. For orders, samples or customization, contact sales.
Applications
This Toslink / SPDIF optical link is used to carry digital audio between TVs, set-top boxes, AV receivers, soundbars, DVD/BD players, game consoles and home-theatre amplifiers over a plastic optical fiber link that is immune to electromagnetic interference and ground loops.
Ordering and customization
Length, outer diameter (2.2 / 3.8 / 4.0 / 5.0 mm), jacket color and connector finish can be customized. Tell us the source and destination devices, the required length and whether you need male-to-male, male-to-mini or bulk fiber.
