The RMPOF1000B - ST POF fiber optic patch cable utilizes an ST connector and plastic optical fiber (POF) for short-distance, low-cost optical signal transmission. Plastic optical fiber, with its ease of installation and strong interference resistance, is ideal for cost-sensitive applications such as industrial control and consumer electronics. The ST connector provides reliable connectivity and ensures stable optical signal transmission.

II. Core Parameters
1. Physical Parameters
Fiber Type: Plastic Optical Fiber (POF), featuring a large core diameter, typically around 1mm, which simplifies termination and is suitable for coupling with simple optical devices.
Connector Type: ST connector, with a bayonet-type connection structure that twists and locks after insertion, providing a stable connection and excellent repeatability, suitable for optical ports on common equipment.
Cable Length: A standard 1-meter cable is available (other lengths, such as 0.5 and 2 meters, can be customized upon request). The cable is provided with a black jacket (see the pattern in the image) for protection and easy cable identification. The jacket material is flexible and wear-resistant, adapting to bending and pulling in common installation environments.
2.Optical Parameters
Transmission Wavelength: Covers commonly used wavelengths from visible light to near-infrared, typically 650nm (suitable for red light communication scenarios, such as industrial sensors and short-distance control signal transmission). Some wavelengths are also compatible with 850nm, meeting the wavelength requirements of different optical modules and optical devices. Attenuation Characteristics: Due to the inherent properties of plastic optical fiber, its attenuation is higher than that of quartz optical fiber. At a wavelength of 650nm, the typical attenuation is approximately 150-200dB/km (depending on the fiber's raw material and production process). This makes it suitable for short-distance transmission within 100 meters, such as between industrial equipment and within short links in consumer electronics.
