The use of polymer optical fibers (POF) in automotive networks is widely realized since 1998. Systems like D2B, MOST and Byteflight use 1 mm step index fibers based on PMMA. On of the remaining limitations is the maximum operation temperature of + 85 deg C. Three possible solutions to overcome this limit are special high-temperature POF, polymer clad silica fibers or multi core glass fiber bundles (MC-GOF). Additional advantages of MC-GOF are very small bending radii and POF compatible connectors and components. This paper will show measurements of Schott's MC-GOF in comparison with PMMA-POF according to the MOST specification.
