Advantages of POF in Industrial Environments

  • Immunity to electrically noisy environments
    Being optical, POF is a solution for industrial environments where electrical noise can be an issue for copper-based communications.
  • Easy layout reusing electrical conduits
    Not being a conductor and immune to electrical noise, POF can be laid where powerline lines are to facilitate installation.
  • Connectored and Connector-less
    Cabling can be terminated in the field with easy connectorization or can be pre-connectorized.
  • Multiple line bundles with signal integrity
    Crosstalk does not exist so running lines in parallel is not a concern.
  • Easy layout in harsh environments/moving parts
    Due to its nature and mechanical robustness, POF can be installed under water, in chemically hazardous places, in highly vibrating systems, in high temperature and low temperature environments, etc.
  • Communication channel with galvanic isolation
    While providing connectivity, it also isolates systems, which is ideal for controlling electrical and battery systems.
