Application Support
An Evaluation Kit and Reference Designs are available to
assist in evaluation of the AFCT-57J5APZ . Please contact
your local Field Sales representative for availability and
ordering details.
Caution
There are no user serviceable parts nor maintenance re-
quirements for the AFCT-57J5APZ. All mechanical ad-
justments are made at the factory prior to shipment.
Tampering with, modifying, misusing or improperly
handling the AFCT-57J5APZ will void the product
warranty. It may also result in improper operation and
possibly overstress the laser source. Performance deg-
radation or device failure may result. Connection of the
AFCT-57J5APZ to a light source not compliant with these
speci cations, operating above maximum operating
conditions or in a manner inconsistent with it’s design
and function may result in exposure to hazardous light
radiation and may constitute an act of modifying or man-
ufacturing a laser product. Persons performing such an
act are required by law to re-certify and re-identify the
laser product under the provisions of U.S. 21 CFR (Sub-
chapter J) and TUV.

Regulatory Compliance
The AFCT-57J5APZ complies with all applicable laws
and regulations as detailed in Table 1. Certi cation level
is dependent on the overall con guration of the host
equipment. The transceiver performance is o ered as a
gure of merit to assist the designer
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
The AFCT-57J5APZ is compatible with ESD levels found
in typical manufacturing and operating environments
as described in Table 1. In the normal handling and
operation of optical transceivers, ESD is of concern in two
circumstances.
The rst case is during handling of the transceiver prior
to insertion into an SFP compliant cage. To protect the
device, it’s important to use normal ESD handling precau-
tions. These include using of grounded wrist straps, work-
benches and oor wherever a transceiver is handled.
The second case to consider is static discharges to the
exterior of the host equipment chassis after installation.
If the optical interface is exposed to the exterior of host
equipment cabinet, the transceiver may be subject to
system level ESD requirements.
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
Equipment incorporating gigabit transceivers is typically
subject to regulation by the FCC in the United States,
CENELEC EN55022 (CISPR 22) in Europe and VCCI
in Japan. The AFCT-57J5APZ’s compliance to these
standards is detailed in Table 1. The metal housing and
shielded design of the AFCT-57J5APZ minimizes the EMI
challenge facing the equipment designer.
EMI Immunity (Susceptibility)
Due to its shielded design, the EMI immunity of the AF-
CT-57J5APZ exceeds typical industry standards.
Flammability
The AFCT-57J5APZ optical transceiver is made of metal
and high strength, heat resistant, chemical resistant and
UL 94V-0 ame retardant plastic.
