Samenvatting
Thick-core polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) plastic optical fiber (POF) has been recognized as a strong candidate for future broadband and flexible in-home networks. Economic and technical studies have shown the benefits of a low-cost solution to address the bandwidth or capacity on-demand for wireless and wired services. The current challenges being addressed ensure the evolution from laboratories to field-trial systems, with emerging and maturing POF components. Hence, Gigabit POF solutions either as a stand-alone solution or being integrated in end-user terminals are on the verge of commercialization. This paper gives an overview of the recent activities of POF research in the labs and commercial activities for in-home POF deployment.
