Data communication over Polymer Optical Fibers (POF) is limited to only one channel for data transmission. Therefore the bandwidth is strongly restricted. By using more than one channel, it is possible to break through the limit. This technique is called Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM). It uses different wavelengths in the visible spectrum to transmit data parallel over one fiber. Two components...
Polymer Optical Fibers (POFs) possess some advantages compared to copper and glass fibers. Primarily, POFs are inexpensive, space saving, easy to handle, and not susceptible to electromagnetic interference. Therefore, POFs are a reasonable alternative in short distance data communication. Due to their specific advantages POFs are applied in a wide number of applications. The main applications include...
Polymer optical fibers (POFs) are having an increasing role in short range optical communication systems. Home networks present a very interesting application sector due to numerous advantages of POFs over traditional communication mediums.
POFs (polymer optical fibers) gradually replace traditional communication media such as copper and glass within short distance communication systems. Primarily, this is due to their cost-effectiveness and easy handling. POFs are used in various fields of optical communication, e.g. the automotive sector or in-house communication. So far, however, only a few key components for a POF communication network...
Polymer optical fibers (POF) can be used for a large number of applications, most notably for data transmission. Although POF are used for a lot of medical as well as scientific applications, the technology is - as of yet - almost unknown to the contemporary consumer market. To change this incongruity, Harz University established the POF usability lab. Thanks to the help of several sponsors, an exemplary,...
