10 mm Medical Silica Glass Optical Fiber Cable
This glass fiber from JINSHANG TECH is a 1 mm/2 mm/3 mm/5 mm large-core silica light guide with wide spectral and temperature capability.
Manufactured for production use rather than as a one-off sample, the unit is built to a stable fiber specification so orders can be repeated with consistent dimensions and performance.
Key Characteristics
- PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate) core for high light transmission and low-cost optical links
- Fiber diameter: 1mm 2mm 3mm 5mm 8mm 10mm
- Operating temperature range: -55~+85C
- Certified to ISO9001 ,ROHS
- Housing/jacket color: Black
- Silica core supports broad wavelength range and high optical power
- Wider temperature range and higher bandwidth than polymer POF
- Available in large-core sizes for light delivery and spectroscopy
Typical Applications
The unit is commonly used for laser light delivery and medical/dental devices. The result is a reliable, repeatable build that tolerates the routing, vibration and repeated handling typical of production installations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is it more fragile than POF? A: Glass is stiffer and needs careful handling/termination, but proper jacketing and connectors make it robust for industrial and medical use.
Q: Which connectors fit? A: SMA905, FC and ST are common for large-core silica fibers; match the ferrule to the core diameter.
Q: Glass fiber vs plastic fiber? A: Silica/glass supports higher power, wider wavelengths and temperatures, while POF is cheaper and easier to terminate. Choose glass for laser, medical and spectral applications.
Q: What core sizes are available? A: Large-core silica fibers are offered in many diameters (e.g. 200–1000 um and larger); select by the connector and optical power requirements.
