Applications
MULTI Gb/s PLASTIC WIRE is a valuable alternative for copper link or wireless in data transmission. With the future expected increase of data traffic and the increase in transmission frequencies, cheap, multi-gigabit and low energy data transmission over meters distance are required.
The main targeted applications are :
- Transport (embedded electronics),
- Active cables (VS USB and Thunderbolt),
- Data centers.
Description
- This technology is a multi-gigabit communication link, using a plastic fiber as transmission channel.
- A cladding is designed around the waveguide to make a barrier to any perturbation.
Benefits
- Transmission rate > 10 Gbit/s,
- More efficient compared to wireless ,
- Isolation (Fewer external disturbance),
- Lighter,
- Low cost (plastic extrusion),
- Low consumption,
- Mechanical stability and robustness.
Maturation
