Suitable For Duplex Connector AFBR-452xZ
Data Sheet
Description
Avago Technologies' AFBR-4536xZ duplex bulkhead con-
nectors are designed for use with Avago Technologies’ du-
plex connectors AFBR-452xZ. Its rugged design contains a
latching mechanism for an increased retention force. The
simple snap-together concept saves the user labor and
tool cost.
The connectors are made of a rugged, flame retardant
plastic which is suitable for industrial and other harsh en-
vironments. The AFBR-4536xZ duplex bulkhead connec-
tors are for use with Plastic Optical Fiber (POF) only.
The AFBR-4536EZ uses standard black port color, AFBR-
4536BZ has a blue colored port and AFBR-4536DZ has
one black and one blue port. This product is lead free and
compliant with RoHS.

Notes:
1. Typical data are at 25°C.
2. Usually, the button of the latching mechanism shall be pressed when disconnecting the fiber. If the connector is pulled out of the bulkhead
connector while the lever is not pressed, the latching mechanism will degrade significantly after the first cycle
3. Well polished POF surfaces, measured at beginning of life (0hrs) using original Avago 1m cable assembly. The typical value is valid for room
temperature.
