Description
The HFBR-0400 Series of components is designed to
provide cost effective, high performance fiber optic
communication links for information systems and
industrial applications with link distances of up to
2.7 kilometers. With the HFBR-24X6, the 125 MHz
analog receiver, data rates of up to 160 megabaud are
attainable.
Transmitters and receivers are directly compatible
with popular “industry-standard” connectors: ST, SMA,
SC and FC. They are completely specified with multiple
fiber sizes; including 50/125 µm, 62.5/125 µm,
100/140 µm, and 200 µm.
Complete evaluation kits are available for ST product
offerings; including transmitter, receiver, connectored
cable, and technical literature. In addition, ST
connectored cables are available for evaluation.

Package and Handling
Information
Package Information
All HFBR-0400 Series
transmitters and receivers are
housed in a low-cost, dual-inline
package that is made of high
strength, heat resistant, chem-
ically resistant, and UL 94V-O
flame retardant ULTEM
®
(plastic
(UL File #E121562). The
transmitters are easily identified
by the light grey color connector
port. The receivers are easily
identified by the dark grey color
connector port. (Black color for
conductive port.) The package is
designed for auto-insertion and
wave soldering so it is ideal for
high volume production
applications.
Handling and Design
Information
Each part comes with a protective
port cap or plug covering the
optics. These caps/plugs will vary
by port style. When soldering, it
is advisable to leave the protec-
tive cap on the unit to keep the
optics clean. Good system
performance requires clean port
optics and cable ferrules to avoid
obstructing the optical path.
Clean compressed air often is
sufficient to remove particles of
dirt; methanol on a cotton swab
also works well.
Recommended Chemicals for
Cleaning/Degreasing
HFBR-0400 Products
Alcohols: methyl, isopropyl,
isobutyl. Aliphatics: hexane,
heptane, Other: soap solution,
naphtha.
Do not use partially halogenated
hydrocarbons such as 1,1.1
trichloroethane, ketones such as
MEK, acetone, chloroform, ethyl
acetate, methylene dichloride,
phenol, methylene chloride, or
N-methylpyrolldone. Also, Avago
does not recommend the use of
cleaners that use halogenated
hydrocarbons because of their
potential environmental harm.
