The HFBR-453X series connectors are an enhanced version of the HFBR-4501 and HFBR-4503 low-cost connectors for plastic optical fiber, which are compatible with HP's versatile link series transmitters and receivers. The innovative design uses a simple,snap-together concept which eliminates the need for crimping. This connector not only saves the user labor and tool cost, but reduces the yield loss due to installation error.
The HFBR-453X series connectors are available in two styles: latching and non-latching. For a duplex connector, two nonlatching simplex connectors can be snapped together. The connectors are made of a rugged, flame retardant plastic which is good for industrial and other harsh environments. The HFBR-453X series connectors are for use with Plastic Optical Fiber only.

HFBR-4531 Features
* Requires No Crimp Ring or Crimping Tool * Durable ULTEM Plastic Material (UL File #E121562) * Same Low Cost as HFBR-4501/4503 Series Connectors * Excellent Retention Force * Symmetry in Nonlatching Connector Gives Simplex/Duplex Functionality with the Same Part
Four connector styles are available for termination of plastic optical fiber: simplex, simplex latching, duplex and duplex latching. All connectors provide a snap-in action when mated to Versatile Link components. Simplex connectors are color coded to facilitate identification of transmitter and receiver connections. Duplex connectors are keyed so that proper orientation is ensured during insertion. If the POF cable/connector will be used at extreme operating temperatures or experience frequent and wide temperature cycling effects, the cable/connector attachment can be strengthened with an RTV adhesive (see Plastic Connectoring Instructions for more detail). The connectors are made of a flame retardant VALOX UL94 V-0 material (UL file # E121562).
