The light is transmitted by two Plastic Optical Fibres (POF) running through the length of the cables which are bent back at 180° inside the boots at each extremity.
Concept demonstration : transmission of the light
The POF are maintained in accessible position by a plastic boot and along the inner sides of the cable to carry the light injection. The transmission of light does not disturb the electric performance in any way.
The light is injected by the PatchLight or PRO-PatchLight which is placed over the boot at one end of a patch cord in use. The other end of the patch cord is identified thanks to the two luminous dots.
The PatchSee solution is covered by an international patent
