Broadcom AFBR-24xxZ Optic Receivers

Broadcom AFBR-24xxZ fiber optic receivers are designed to provide cost effective, high performance fiber optic communication links for information systems and industrial applications with link distances of up to 2km. The receivers are directly compatible with popular industry-standard connectors: ST and SMA. AFBR-24x8xZ series receivers are designed for use with 50/125µm, 62.5/125µm, and 200µm multi-mode fiber and have a 2km reach. AFBR-24x9xZ series receivers are designed for use with 62.5/125µm multi-mode fiber and have a 3km reach. Broadcom AFBR-24xxxZ optic receivers have high EMC resistance, wide receiver dynamic range, and high sensitivity where over temperatures are achievable.
