Benefits of Firecomms Fiber Optics for Consumer Network Applications Firecomms fiber optic solutions are ideal solutions for high-bandwidth triple play networks that require Ethernet data to be transmitted across the home network. Together with Plastic …
When a plastic optical fiber undergoes a physical change, such as bending, the light passing through it undergoes changes that are detectable, allowing it to be used as a sensor.
One of the big advantages to polymer optical fiber is in the isolation it can give you in any design. Engineers go to great lengths for galvanic isolations solutions. POF eliminates any pathway for common-mode noise and in most cases this is a very ec …
Plastic optical fiber systems can be configured for a wide variety of measurement applications and environments. Applications include temperature, pressure, flex, strain, rotation, movement, and chemical composition. Most fiber optic sensor configurat …
