Abstract
Step-index Polymer Optical Fibers (SI-POF) are candidates for broadband in-house networks. For the first time, we give a comprehensive overview over the real channel capacity of POF links up to 100 m, based on experimental investigations and complex system simulations. More than 2 Gbit/s can be transmitted at very low BER with existing components. Improved devices will give place for further progress.
