POF has been called the "consumer" optical fiber because the fiber and associated optical links, connectors, and installation are all inexpensive. Due to the attenuation and distortion characteristics of PMMA fibers, they are commonly used for low-speed, short-distance (up to 100 meters) applications in digital home appliances, home networks, industrial networks (, , ), and car networks (). Characteristics of Plastic Fiber Optic Cables: Plastic fiber optic cables offer several distinctive characteristics that set them apart from glass fibers: Lower Material Cost: The production of plastic fibers is more cost-effective than glass fibers, making plastic fiber optic cables a more. Similar to glass optical fiber, POF transmits light (for illumination or data) through the core of the fiber.
