Enfain

Enfain 4501-4511 Plastic Optical Fibre Cable 3m

SKU CH-NDTK-7PWV0

Single-core plastic optical fibre with 1.0 mm core and 2.2 mm jacket operates at 650 or 530 nm wavelength, offers 0.50 numerical aperture, and withstands -55 to +85 °C

Length 3m

  • Large bandwidth and EMI immunity for clean signals
  • Operates from -55 °C to +85 °C in harsh environments
  • PMMA jacket resists wear and corrosion for long life
  • 0 mm core with 0.50 NA supports 650 nm or 530 nm links
  • Tensile strength above 70 N ensures durable connections

Single-core plastic optical fibre 3 m

The Enfain 4501-4511 is a single-core plastic optical fibre cable finished to a 2.2 mm outer diameter with a black PMMA jacket. Its 1.0 mm core operates at 650 or 530 nm wavelength and suits industrial control, medical equipment or short-range communication links where electrical isolation is required.

Bandwidth and distance limits

Plastic optical fibre offers large transmission bandwidth and complete immunity to electromagnetic interference, but attenuation is higher than glass fibre so reach is limited to short runs. The numerical aperture of 0.50 and specified joint loss define the practical link budget; runs beyond a few metres will need repeaters or a switch to glass fibre.

Installation notes

The cable is lightweight, flexible and requires no maintenance once terminated. Connectors must be polished precisely to keep insertion loss within the stated joint-loss figure; poor polishing is the most common cause of excess attenuation. Tensile strength exceeds 70 N, so moderate pulling force is acceptable during routing.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 4501 or 4511 version for my 3m cable run?

The cable is supplied as a single 4501-4511 patch cord, so there is no separate version to select; the model covers both transmitter and receiver ends in one 3-metre assembly.

What does the 1.0 mm core diameter mean for signal quality in my equipment?

The 1.0 mm core supports the stated 0.50 numerical aperture at 650 or 530 nm, giving a wide acceptance angle for stable coupling and low joint loss in industrial or medical links.

How does the PMMA fibre and 2.2 mm jacket limit the practical bandwidth or distance?

PMMA material with a 2.2 mm outer diameter is rated for -55 to +85 °C operation and over 70 N tensile strength, making it suitable for short-run, EMI-immune control and communication links rather than long-haul data.
