Broadcom AFBR-1529Z

The AFBR-15x9Z analog transmitter uses a 650 nm LED source in a housing designed to efficiently couple into 1 mm Polymer Optical Fiber (POF) and 200 µm diameter Plastic-Clad Silica (PCS). Links up to 50 m are supported with 1 mm POF, and up to 200 m with 200 µm PCS. It is designed to interoperate with Broadcom's HFBR-.25xxZ, AFBR-.25xxZ and AFBR-26xxZ receivers. The transmitter is a 4-pin device, packed in Versatile Link housing. Versatile Link components can be interlocked (N-plexed together) to minimize space and to provide dual connections with the duplex connectors. Various simplex and duplex connectors, as well as POF cables are available for Versatile Link components.
