Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
Many equipment designs using these high-data-rate
modules will be required to meet the requirements of
the FCC in the United States, CENELEC in Europe and
VCCI in Japan. These modules, with their shielded design,
perform to the levels detailed in the Regulatory Compli-
ance Table. The performance detailed in the Regulatory
Compliance Table is intended to assist the equipment
designer in the management of the overall equipment
EMI performance. However, system margins are
dependent on the customer board and chassis design.
Immunity
Equipment using these modules will be subject to radio
frequency electromagnetic fields in some environ-
ments. These modules have good immunity due to their
shielded designs. See the Regulatory Compliance Table
for further detail.
Eye Safety
These 850 nm VCSEL-based modules provide eye safety
by design. The HFBR-779BWZ has been registered with
CDRH and certied by TUV as a Class 1M device under
Amendment 2 of IEC 60825-1. See the Regulatory Com-
pliance Table for further detail. If Class 1M exposure is
possible, a safety-warning label should be placed on the
product stating the following:
LASER RADIATION
DO NOT VIEW DIRECTLY WITH OPTICAL INSTRUMENTS
CLASS 1M LASER PRODUCT
Connector Cleaning
The optical connector used is the MTP® (MPO). The
optical ports have recessed optics that are visible through
the nose of the ports. The provided port plug should be
installed any time a ber cable is not connected. The port
plug ensures the optics remain clean and no cleaning
should be necessary. In the event the optics become
contaminated, forced nitrogen or clean dry air at less
than 20 psi is the recommended cleaning agent. The
optical port features, including guide pins, preclude use
of any solid instrument. Liquids are not advised due to
potential damage.
Process Plug
Each parallel optics module is supplied with an inserted
process plug for protection of the optical ports within the
MTP® (MTO) connector receptacle.
Handling Precautions
The HFBR-779BWZ and HFBR-789BZ can be damaged by
current surges and over-voltage conditions. Power supply
transient precautions should be taken.
Normal handling precautions for electrostatic sensitive
devices should be taken (see ESD section).
The HFBR-779BWZ is a Class 1M laser product. DO NOT
VIEW RADIATION DIRECTLY WITH OPTICAL INSTRU-
MENTS.
