FIBRE OPTIC CABLES
Single-Core Bare Fibre Cable
A Single-Core Bare Fibre Cable consists of a single uninsulated core made from PMMA (PolyMethylMethAcrylate) that transmits cold light from an illuminator without involving electricity or generating heat in the fibre itself.
These uninsulated bare fibre cables are commonly used for precise lighting applications, such as in signage or star ceilings, where they deliver concentrated light at the cable’s end. Because they lack an outer protective sheath, they can also emit a soft glow from the sides when used with the appropriate light source, creating a diffuse lighting effect.
KEY FEATURES
No Electricity in Fibre
Light is transmitted from the illuminator — the fibre carries no electrical current, making it safe for wet and sensitive environments.
No Heat Generation
PMMA fibre does not generate heat at the light point, making it ideal for close-proximity and touch-safe applications.
Flexible & Compact
Small diameter cables that bend easily for signage, architectural models, star ceilings, and concept lighting designs.
Custom Cut & Prefabricated
Available in rolls or custom-cut and prefabricated by LightEFX to suit specific project requirements.
APPLICATIONS
Star ceilings
Signage lighting
Architectural models
Concept & scale models
Decorative lighting
Sensory rooms
FINISHING OPTIONS
The ends of the fibre cables can be left with a clean-cut finish or equipped with fibre optic lens fittings, depending on the project. Lens fittings allow designers to manipulate the light output, adjusting beam angles and diffusion without the need for a separate powered LED fixture.
