Performance & Reliability
Large-core POF offers generous alignment tolerance, simple handling and immunity to electrical noise. Optical attenuation is higher than glass fiber, so usable reach depends on wavelength, source power, receiver sensitivity, connector loss and cable length. UL status should be verified against the supplied listing record.
Customization & Ordering
Specify length and the compatible 1 mm POF connectors. We confirm the UL listing status for the ordered 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 POF?
A: Plastic optical fiber uses a large ~1 mm polymer core – easy to handle and terminate, ideal for short links.
Q: How far can POF go?
A: POF has higher loss than glass, so it is best for short industrial, control and audio links rather than long backbones.
Q: What does UL VW-1 mean?
A: It is a vertical-wire flame test reference; verify the exact listing against the supplied record.
