HFBR-0400Z, HFBR-14xxZ and HFBR-24xxZ Series
Low Cost, Miniature Fiber Optic Components
with ST®, SMA, SC and FC Ports
Data Sheet
Description
The HFBR-0400Z Series of components is designed to
provide cost effective, high performance fiber optic com-
munication links for information systems and industrial
applications with link distances of up to 2.7 kilometers.
With the HFBR-24x6Z, 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.
The HFBR-14x4Z high power transmitter and HFBR-24x6Z
125 MHz receiver pair up to provide a duplex solution
optimized for 100 Base-SX. 100Base-SX is a Fast Ethernet
Standard (100 Mbps) at 850 nm on multimode fiber.
Complete evaluation kits are available for ST product
offerings; including transmitter, receiver, connectored
cable, and technical literature. In addition, ST connec-
tored cables are available for evaluation.

HFBR-0410Z ST Evaluation Kit
Contains the following:
Package and Handling Information
Package Information
All HFBR-0400Z Series transmitters and receivers are
housed in a low-cost, dual-inline package that is made
of high strength, heat resistant, chemically 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.

HFBR-0414Z ST Evaluation Kit
Includes additional components to interface to the trans-
mitter and receiver as well as the PCB to reduce design
time. Contains the following:
Handling and Design Information
Each part comes with a protective port cap or plug cov-
ering the optics. These caps/plugs will vary by port style.
When soldering, it is advisable to leave the protective
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 parti-
cles of dirt; methanol on a cotton swab also works well.

Recommended Chemicals for Cleaning/Degreasing
HFBR-0400Z Products
Alcohols: methyl, isopropyl, isobutyl.
Aliphatics: hexane, heptane, Other: soap solution, naph-
tha.
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
Technologies does not recommend the use of cleaners
that use halogenated hydrocarbons because of their
potential environmental harm.
