Description
The HFBR-453X series connec-
tors are an enhanced version of
the HFBR-4501 and HFBR-4503
low-cost connectors for plastic
optical fiber, which are compat-
ible with HP’s versatile link series
transmitters and receivers. The
innovative design uses a simple,
snap-together concept which
eliminates the need for crimping.
This connector not only saves the
user labor and tool cost, but
reduces the yield loss due to
installation error.
Applications
These connectors can be used for
any application in which plastic
optical fiber is used including:
• Industrial Control and
Voltage Isolation
• Automotive Networks
• Proprietary System
Interconnects
• Gaming Equipment
• Medical Equipment
• Telecommunications
• Datacommunications
The HFBR-453X series connectors
are available in two styles:
latching and non-latching. For a
duplex connector, two nonlatch-
ing simplex connectors can be
snapped together. The connec-
tors are made of a rugged, flame
retardant plastic which is good
for industrial and other harsh
environments. The HFBR-453X
series connectors are for use with
Plastic Optical Fiber only.
