PANDA fiber
with heat resistant coating
Fujikura's PANDA fibers with heat resistant coating can operate in a wide range of temperature between -40 ℃ and +150 ℃.
The fibers have a superior optical property and universal quality with not only low polarization-crosstalk and low attenuation but also the broad suitability for fusion-splice or optical connector.
Features
・The fiber that has acrylate coating with improved heat resistance is available to use under the wide range of temperature between -40 ℃ and +150 ℃.
・Small bending radius(R5 mm)
