20-metre single-core plastic optical fibre with 1.0 mm core, 2.2 mm PMMA jacket, 0.50 numerical aperture and operation from -55 to +85 °C

Length 20m

  • Wide bandwidth and EMI immunity for clean signal transmission
  • Withstands -55 to +85 °C for harsh industrial environments
  • PMMA jacket resists wear and corrosion for long cable life
  • Simple plug-and-play installation needs no ongoing maintenance
  • 0 mm core and 0.50 NA support 650 or 530 nm links

Industrial-grade plastic optical fibre

This Enfain 4501-4511 cable provides 20 metres of single-core plastic optical fibre with a 1.0 mm core and 2.2 mm jacket. It suits industrial control, medical equipment and communication links that require immunity to electromagnetic interference and non-conductive signal paths.

Replaces copper links in noisy environments

The jump is worth it when electromagnetic radiation corrupts copper signals or when ground-loop isolation is mandatory. The PMMA construction withstands operating temperatures from -55 to +85 °C and delivers a numerical aperture of .50 at 650 or 530 nm wavelengths for stable transmission.

Simple termination, no maintenance

Precise polishing and a wear-resistant PMMA outer skin allow straightforward connector fitting without specialised tools. Tensile strength exceeds 70 N, so normal routing tension will not damage the fibre. Avoid sharp bends that exceed the minimum bend radius and ensure connector faces stay clean for optimal joint loss performance.

Questions about this item

What connector size fits the 2.2 mm jacket on this 20 m POF cable?

The finished diameter is 2.2 mm, so select a connector or ferrule specified for 2.2 mm plastic optical fibre.

How do you terminate the 1.0 mm PMMA core without cracking it?

Strip the black PMMA jacket, cleave the 1.0 mm core with a POF polishing tool, and insert it into the connector ferrule until it seats.

When should the cable be replaced given the >70 N tensile rating?

Replace it if the jacket shows cracks, the core end-face is scratched, or the cable has been pulled beyond the >70 N tensile limit.
