Plastic optical fibers

Plastic fiber optic cable or POF or polymer optic fiber is a type of optical fibers. The difference between plastic fibers and glass optical fibers is that they are used blindly.

which are used in the plastic blind plastic type and the glass blind glass type, which have different diameters. Plastic optical fibers are hundreds of times larger than glass blind optical fibers in terms of core diameter. Plastic optical fibers work the same as glass optical fibers. Plastic is used for data transmission and lighting.

Plastic fiber optic connector:

Plastic cables have their own special connectors due to the difference in the size and diameter of their cores. Generally, the common specifications between plastic connectors are as follows.

This connector consists of two plastic rivets and has a thermal crimp for riveting the plastic cable
This connector provides a quick connection when paired with Versatile Link components.
Duplex connectors are arranged to ensure correct orientation when entering the cable
In the case of using plastic cable and its connecting connectors, if they are exposed to extreme operating temperatures, the connection of the cable can be reinforced with an RTV adhesive.
The connector is made of VALOX UL94V-0 flame retardant material.
Plastic fiber connector 4503 (4503 POF Connector)

As mentioned above, the 4503 plastic fiber optic connector has a simple locking mechanism with a gray connector body. The 4503 POF Connector is designed to be compatible with Link multifunction transceivers.

This connector is designed to use 1 mm plastic optical fiber (POF) with a maximum coverage of 2.2 mm.

The advantages of the HFBR-4503 plastic connector include anti-electromagnetic interference and anti-vibration electromagnetic radiation and ensuring that in any case the rate of bit error transmission is zero at high and low temperatures (-55 to 85 degrees Celsius), easy installation and no need for repair. and maintenance noted

Use cases of POF Connector 4503
