What is plastic optical fiber?


Plastic optical fiber (POF), also called polymer optical fiber, is made out of plastic. Traditionally PMMA (acrylic) is the core material, and fluorinated polymers are the cladding material.

Similar to traditional glass fiber, POF transmits light (or data) through the core of the fiber. The core size of POF is in some cases 100 times larger than glass fiber.
