Additional Details

The HFBR-5710LP operates at a wavelength of 850 nm, making it suitable for multimode fiber (MMF) applications. It supports a link distance of up to 550 meters with 50/125 μm fiber or 300 meters with 62.5/125 μm fiber. The transceiver's DDM functionality allows for monitoring parameters such as optical output power, optical input power, temperature, supply voltage, and laser bias current. This allows for efficient management and troubleshooting of the fiber optic link. The operating temperature range is typically 0°C to 70°C.
