Broadcom AFBR-POMEK2204 Evaluation Kit

Broadcom AFBR-POMEK2204 Evaluation Kit supports the 2W AFBR-POL2120 laser. This kit features a controllable current source to adjust the laser light output. The full power-over-fiber link is conveniently achieved by coupling to one of Broadcom’s highly efficient optical power converters, AFBR-POC204L or AFBR-POC206L. These converters deliver 100% galvanically isolated power in industrial applications. The AFBR-POMEK2204 module is ideally used in lightning, electric power utilities, RF power electronics circuits, oil, and gas industry, chemical plants, aerospace, security, and sensor applications.
