The OPF392 family fiber optic transmitters are high performance devices packaged for data communication links. This trans-
mitter is an 850nm GaAlAs LED and is specifically designed to efficiently launch optical power into fibers ranging in size from
50/125µm up to 200/300µm diameter fiber. Multiple power ranges with upper and lower limits are offered which allows the de-
signer to select a device best suited for the application.
This product’s combination of features including high speed and efficient coupled power makes it an ideal transmitter for inte-
gration into all types of data communications equipment.
The mechanical design of this packaged is intended for PC Board or panel mounting. It is shipped with a lock washer, jam nut,
2 #2-56 screws, and a protective dust cap.
