Mitsubishi ESKA SH1048 SH1064 Bundle POF, 48/64-core 0.265mm

Mitsubishi Super Eska SH1048 (48-core) and SH1064 (64-core) bundle POF, 0.265 mm fiber, PE jacket, 650 dB/km, -55 to 70 C, 500 m, for sensors and data.

Categories: Industrial Fiber Optic Cable, POF Fiber Optical Cable

Mitsubishi ESKA SH1048 and SH1064 are multi-fiber bundle plastic optical cables from the Super Ecka consumer-data (SH) grade: SH1048 bundles 48 fibers and SH1064 bundles 64 fibers of 0.265 mm PMMA POF in a polyethylene jacket. They are used where many independent light paths are needed in one cable, such as sensing arrays, illumination bundles and short-distance data harnesses.

Product Overview

The Mitsubishi Eska part-numbering scheme decodes these cables as a grade letter (S = Super Eska), structure type, fiber diameter and fiber count. SH1048 and SH1064 are the 48-fiber and 64-fiber members of the 0.265 mm bundle family, rated at 650 dB/km transmission loss, -55 to +70 °C and supplied on 500 m spools per the Mitsubishi Eska cable catalog. The core is PMMA with a fluorinated-polymer cladding and a PE outer jacket. See the full range on our POF fiber optical cable category page.

Applications

Sensor and photoelectric sensing arrays needing many parallel light paths in one cable.
Illumination bundles and decorative multi-point light feeds.
Short-distance data communication and industrial-control harnesses where EMI immunity is required.

The bundle connects to POF transmitters/receivers or illuminators sized for the 0.265 mm fiber. Browse the rest of the POF cable range for simplex and duplex Ecka options.

Ordering & Customization

Please confirm the grade (SH1048 48-core or SH1064 64-core), required length, and the connector / ferrule interface at each end.

FAQ

What is the difference between SH1048 and SH1064?

They are the same 0.265 mm Super Eska bundle family in different fiber counts: 48 fibers (SH1048, OD 3.0 mm) and 64 fibers (SH1064, OD 3.25 mm). Both carry 650 dB/km and -55 to +70 °C per the Eska catalog.

Is this a single data channel?

No. It is a bundle of many independent 0.265 mm fibers; each fiber is a separate light path. Terminate and match each fiber to its own emitter/detector.

What about the docx attenuation of 0.2 dB/km?

The supplier docx quick-details list 0.2 dB/km, but the Mitsubishi Eska cable catalog table for these bundle grades lists 650 dB/km; we use the catalog value and flag the discrepancy for verification.

Why Choose Us

We supply genuine-grade Mitsubishi Eska POF identified by the recognized SH part number, keep the catalog table traceable, and do not mix illuminator or enclosure ratings into the cable specifications. Start from the home page or the POF category to explore related products.
