Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the AFBR-5302Z is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Data Rate: 25Mbps (must match)
• Connector Type: SC (must match)
• Mounting Type: Through Hole (must match)
• Applications: General Purpose (must match)
• Wavelength: 1308nm nominal operation (1300nm acceptable within fiber optic standards)

The AFBR-5302Z-C qualifies as a substitute based on matching data rate, connector type, mounting type, and application category. The wavelength specification of 1300nm is operationally compatible with the original 1308nm specification within standard fiber optic communication tolerances for general-purpose systems.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AFBR-5302Z-C is available as an active product with RoHS compliance certification, providing a viable path forward from the obsolete AFBR-5302Z. Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status.

The primary consideration for substitution is the voltage supply specification difference: the original part operates at 4.75V ~ 5.25V, while the substitute operates at 3.3V. System design must accommodate this voltage requirement change through appropriate power supply configuration or voltage regulation.

The wavelength difference of 8nm (1308nm to 1300nm) falls within acceptable operational parameters for general-purpose fiber optic transceiver applications at 25Mbps data rates.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AFBR-5302Z-C directly replace AFBR-5302Z in existing systems?

A: Direct replacement requires verification that the system power supply can provide 3.3V operation, as the original part requires 4.75V ~ 5.25V. The SC connector, Through Hole mounting, and 25Mbps data rate are identical between parts.

Q: What is the significance of the wavelength difference between 1308nm and 1300nm?

A: Both wavelengths operate within the standard 1300nm window for fiber optic communication. The 8nm difference is within acceptable tolerance for general-purpose applications at 25Mbps data rates.

Q: Does the substitute part meet current compliance standards?

A: The AFBR-5302Z-C is RoHS Compliant and REACH Unaffected, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements. The original AFBR-5302Z is REACH Unaffected but does not specify RoHS status.

Q: What packaging differences exist between these parts?

A: The original part packaging is not specified in available documentation. The substitute part is supplied in Tray packaging.

Q: Is the AFBR-5302Z-C suitable for the same general-purpose applications?

A: Yes, both parts are designated for General Purpose applications and share identical data rate, connector type, and mounting specifications.
