APPLICATIONS
DiMoto's Ethernet over Plastic Optical Fibre technology is typically deployed where electrical noise, ground potential variations or lightning is of concern.
DiMoto's solutions are also ideal for retrofit and temporary installations where ability to install alongside power, terminate in seconds and route inconspicuously significantly reduces deployment costs.
Current Ethernet over Plastic Optical Fibre applications include:
- Industrial networks
- Process control networks
- Commercial data networks
- Residiental structured wiring
- Residiental retrofit wiring (IPTV, TiVo, STB)
