Dear List,
My supplier has assured me that I can drive four hundred metres (400m / 1312 feet / 437 yards) of plastic fibre optic cable without incident (provided that the plastic cable has a good attenuation specification).
The cable runs between two industrial-grade switches - one in a control room and one in an electronics room.
I would appreciate any thoughts or notes regarding experience in such issues. Naturally, plastic is much easier and cheaper to use than glass. We are also considering a glass-plastic polymer, but I do not have the numbers on that yet.
Thank You
RA
