PF-FB500 Toray PMMA End-Glow Fiber Optic Cable for Decorative Lighting
PF-FB500 PF-FB750 is a Toray end-emitting plastic optical fiber with a PMMA core and fluorinated-polymer cladding, supplied for industrial optical applications.
JINSHANG TECH supplies the PF-FB500 PF-FB750 as a production item; fiber diameter, jacketing, connectorization and length can be confirmed against the specification before ordering.
Key Characteristics
- Certified to Reach, ISO9001
- Attenuation rated at 0.75 over the operating wavelength
- Minimum bend radius: 10
- Operating temperature range: -20~70
- IP68 ingress protection for damp or wash-down environments
- Standard length: 3,000
- Safe around water and in public spaces — no electrical current at the light-emitting point
- Fully dielectric light path: the fiber itself carries no electricity, heat or UV at the illuminated end
Typical Applications
The PF-FB500 PF-FB750 is commonly used for star ceilings and starry-sky panels in hotels, KTV rooms, home theaters and bedrooms, fiber curtains, screens, waterfalls and large-area luminous displays, and luminous furniture, home textiles and wearable or fabric-embedded 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 end-glow PMMA fiber used for? A: End-glow PMMA fiber transmits light from a remote illuminator to the end of each strand, producing pin-points of light used for star ceilings, curtains, furniture and architectural decoration.
Q: What core diameter should I choose? A: Smaller diameters (0.25–0.75 mm) give fine, dense star points, while 1.0–3.0 mm strands produce brighter points over longer runs. Match the diameter to your illuminator and desired star density.
Q: Is the fiber safe near water or in a ceiling? A: Yes. The fiber itself carries no electricity and stays cool at the emitting end, so it is suitable for wet areas and occupied spaces when paired with a remotely located light source.
Q: How is it cut and installed? A: The POF is cut with a sharp fiber cutter and bundled into the illuminator chuck; no fusion splicing or electrical work is needed at the lit end.
