Hard-Polymer Clad Fiber (H-PCF) Patch Assemblies
Hard-Polymer Clad Fibers (H-PCF) feature a step-index silica glass core surrounded by a thin, hard-polymer coating that acts as the cladding to contain and guide the light in the core.
H-PCF fibers are preferred for their mechanical strength, flexibility, suitability for use in challenging chemical, environmental and elevated-temperature environments, and their low cost and ease of handling.
Additionally, the lower index of refraction of hard polymer allows for realization of higher numerical apertures (0.37 typ).
H-PCF fibers find broad application in medical devices, military, industrial and scientific applications, and for factory floor data communications.
Berkshire Photonics has years of experience as a producer of specialty patch cables and assemblies made with H-PCF fibers. We stock a variety of patch assemblies (“jumpers”) in standard configurations and lengths as given in the table below.
Most patch assemblies we make, however, are to customer specifications. We use high-quality fiber, connectors and protective sheathing options from reputable manufacturers, and we follow well-documented, continually-monitored production processes so that every assembly we deliver meets the highest standards of reliability and dependability.
Contact us today and tell us about the custom cable assemblies you require. We’ll work with you to quickly identify and deliver an optimized solution.
