Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the AFBR-59E4APZC is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Data Rate: 125MBd
• Wavelength: 1308nm
• Voltage Supply Range: 3V ~ 3.6V
• Connector Type: LC
• Mounting Type: Pluggable, SFP
• Application: Ethernet
• Base Product Number: AFBR-59E4

The substitute part AFBR-59E4APZ meets all these criteria and is manufactured by the same supplier (Broadcom Limited), ensuring functional and mechanical compatibility within the specified electrical parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The AFBR-59E4APZ is the designated substitute for the obsolete AFBR-59E4APZC. Both parts share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters: data rate, wavelength, supply voltage, connector type, and mounting configuration. The substitute part maintains full ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment with the original component.

The primary distinction is product status: the AFBR-59E4APZ is currently Active, providing assured availability for new procurement and system maintenance applications where the AFBR-59E4APZC is no longer obtainable.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can AFBR-59E4APZ be used as a direct replacement for AFBR-59E4APZC?
