3 mm Black Solid-Core Side-Glow Fiber Optic Cable

This is a JINSHANG TECH 3 mm solid-core side-glow (side-emitting) optical fiber that radiates light continuously along its entire length, creating a flexible neon-like line of light.

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

  • Certified to EMC, FCC, VDE, LVD
  • Fiber diameter: 2mm,3mm
  • Attenuation rated at ≤ 0.23 db/m over the operating wavelength
  • Operating temperature range: -35 - 75
  • IP68 ingress protection for damp or wash-down environments
  • Stays cool to the touch and emits no UV at the lit surface
  • Single-color or RGB color-changing depending on the coupled illuminator
  • Cut to length and easily fixed with clips, channels or ties



Typical Applications

The unit is commonly used for automotive interior ambient and P-shape glow lines, and theatre, stage, bar and event decorative line lighting. The result is a reliable, repeatable build that tolerates the routing, vibration and repeated handling typical of production installations.



Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is side-glow fiber? A: Unlike end-glow fiber that emits only at the tip, side-glow (side-emitting) fiber leaks light along its entire length to form a continuous luminous line like neon.
Q: How thick should it be? A: Larger diameters glow brighter and carry light farther; 6 mm suits short runs, while 8–14 mm maintains brightness over long or many-bend outlines.
Q: Can it be used outdoors or in water? A: Yes — the glowing section is waterproof and carries no electricity, so it is suitable for pools, spas and outdoor architectural use with a remote light source.
Q: How does it change color? A: The fiber itself is clear; coupling it to an RGB or RGBW illuminator lets the whole line change color, dim or follow effects.
