The SFH series of plastic fibre devices, from Avago Technologies, consists of transmitters and receivers for optical data transmission with POF. Items available within the series include LED transmitter and photodiodes, phototransistors and integrated solutions (TTL-compatible) as receiver. The V-version plastic connector housing offers no cross talk and interference-free transmission from a light-tight housing. The transparent polymer package has an opening for a 2.2mm fibre end to be inserted. Both transmitter and receiver can be positioned flexibly and the V-version plastic connector housing is auto-insertable and wave solderable. With an extended temperature range of -40 to 85°C and a 650nm light emitting diode (LED) and Si detectors, the SFH series offers high reliability and excellent linearity, with no requirement for fibre stripping.

A variety of applications include:
Industrial electronics
Household electronics
