What Is Fiber Optic Cable?

Fiber optic cable is a flexible lighting element made of PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate) that carries light from one end to the other. Unlike conventional electrical cables, no electricity flows through it, it generates no heat and is completely safe. Thanks to these properties it is widely preferred in starlight ceiling.

Compared to glass fiber optics, PMMA fiber optic cables are more flexible, lighter and far easier to install. They are also resistant to UV rays and moisture. Under correct usage conditions they offer a lifespan of over 20 years. They can therefore be confidently chosen for your long-term projects.

Which Thickness of Fiber Optic Cable to Choose?

The most important criterion when choosing fiber optic cable is thickness. Each thickness serves a different purpose. Below you can find the properties of each thickness in detail and which project type it suits.

  • 0.50mm: The thinnest option. Ideal for a dense star effect. Emits light as small points.
  • 0.75mm: The most preferred thickness for standard projects. Used in both starlight ceilings and decorative strip lighting.
  • 1.00mm: Suitable for professional projects and more prominent points of light. Preferred in hotel lobbies, restaurants and showroom lighting.
  • 1.50mm: Used for industrial projects and lighting large areas. Provides stronger light output.
  • 2.00mm: The thickest option. Preferred in large-scale commercial and industrial projects and outdoor lighting.
