Flexible 2-Core 980/1000 POF Cable
The flexible 2-core 980/1000 POF cable places two large plastic optical fibers inside a reinforced flexible build designed for controlled movement and frequent handling.
Product Overview
The cross-section shows separate optical channels, strength components and a protective outer jacket arranged for controlled flex. It is part of our POF cable range for moving machinery.
The image shows the configuration; flex-life parameters should be confirmed for the final assembly.
Key Features
- Two 980/1000 µm plastic optical fibers
- Flexible reinforced cable design
- Large core for practical coupling tolerance
- Custom lengths and terminations
- Suitable for controlled repeated movement
- EMI-immune, electrically isolating

Performance & Reliability
Large-core POF simplifies optical coupling and remains immune to electromagnetic interference. Flex life depends on bend radius, travel distance, cycle rate, torsion, temperature and termination strain relief; confirm these parameters for the final assembly.
Customization & Ordering
Specify bend radius, travel distance and cycle rate. We engineer the flexible build and strain relief for your motion. 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: Why a flexible POF build?
A: Moving equipment needs a cable designed to flex repeatedly; the reinforced build protects the POF under dynamic motion.
Q: Can POF handle bending?
A: Yes, large-core POF is forgiving, but define bend radius and cycle rate for a rated dynamic life.
Q: What connectors fit?
A: Standard 1 mm POF connectors are used; we can pre-terminate both ends.
