Fiber-Optic Cable






Fiber-Optic Cable

For Volkswagen, no repairs are performed on fiber optic cables. For a repair, the entire fiber optic cable is replaced. Observe the following safety precautions for this:

Fiber optic cables must not be sharply bent, bending radius must be no less than 25 mm.

Fiber optic cables must not be routed over sharp edges.

End pieces (lenses) must not be soiled or grasped with bare fingers.

Fiber optic cables may not be heated.

It is not permitted to twist together two fiber optic cables or one fiber optic cable with a copper wire.
