# HFBR-2412Z

## Optical Receiver for Industrial Applications with ST Port, RoHS Compliant

The HFBR-0400Z Series of components is designed to provide cost effective, high performance fiber optic communication links for industrial, power generation, power distribution, medical, transportation and gaming applications.

The HFBR-24x2Z fiber optic receiver is designed to operate with the Broadcom HFBR-14x2Z and HFBR-14x4Z fiber optic transmitter up to 5MBd. This part is characterized with 50/125 μm, 62.5/125 μm, 100/140 μm, and 200 μm HCS® fiber optic cable. HFBR-24x2Z receiver incorporates an integrated photo IC containing a photodetector and dc amplifier driving an open-collector Schottky output transistor.

This product is also available in other popular industry-standard connectors: SMA, SC and FC.

**Options:**  
- HFBR-2412TCZ (Conductive ST-Threaded Port)  
- HFBR-2412TZ (Plastic ST-Threaded Port)  
- HFBR-2412Z (Plastic ST Port)  

**Advantage of Conductive Port:**  
Maintaining the integrity of the signal ground if the chassis is exposed to electrical noise. In addition, when the conductive port is in good electrical contact with a well-grounded chassis, the conductive port provides additional EMI shielding from electrically noisy circuits.

### Applications

- Computer to Peripheral Links 
- Computer Monitor Links 
- Digital Cross Connect Links 
- Modems and Multiplexers 
- Suitable for Tempest Systems 
- Industrial Control Links
