WHEN SHOULD PLASTIC FIBER BE USED??
POF is increasingly being used for short- and medium range data communications.
Its features such as strenght, easy handling, safety, resiliency to shocks, vibrations, torsions and bending make it suitable and more convenient than conventional optical fiber in many applications:
Future applications are being developed for home networking, which require a reliable, affordable, safe and easy-to-use technology.
Plastic fiber is the
right solution because:
- anyone can install and connect it with common tools
- it is immune to RF noise and doesn't emit harmful radiations
- it is robust and has a useful life of more than 20 years
- it fulfills the great bandwidth needs of the future (1 Gbps over 100m)
- can share conduits with power lines and fits into any conduits, simplifying old premises'cabling
- it operates over distances up to 400m
- it works with any existing transmission standard and it is "future proof"
