Description
OPTAV OV14UBA-1FO-321 USB 3.0 Fiber Extender transmits full-speed USB signals over single simplex LC fiber. Meanwhile, this all-black metal extender adopts Type-B input transmitter and remote receiver with 4-port USB-A built-in hub. In turn, it delivers 5Gbps USB 3.0 super speed with differentiated distance limits for storage and camera peripherals. Besides, each USB-A port supplies up to 1A output current to power high-consumption devices like Kinect. Therefore, this USB 3.0 Fiber Extender fits machine vision, medical testing and interactive exhibition systems perfectly. Furthermore, driver-free pure hardware design realizes cross-system plug-and-play without complicated software setup.
Core Advantages of USB 3.0 Fiber Extender
1. Single LC Fiber Supports Single-Mode & OM3 Multimode Cable
First of all, this USB 3.0 Fiber Extender equips one LC fiber port compatible with single-mode and OM3 multimode fiber. Specifically, USB storage data devices support stable lossless extension up to 300 meters (984ft). Next, USB cameras and video peripherals maintain clear signal transmission within 100 meters (328ft). To be precise, single-fiber layout reduces cable quantity and eliminates messy wiring in equipment racks. On top of that, optical medium completely isolates EMI and RFI interference from industrial motors and power supplies. As a result, integrators build long-distance USB links without extra signal amplifiers. Importantly, standard LC connectors match universal fiber patch cords for fast field wiring. For this reason, it cuts overall project cabling and installation labor costs.
2. Full USB Speed & Wide Device Compatibility Including Kinect
When it comes to transmission performance, this USB 3.0 Fiber Extender hits native 5Gbps super speed for USB 3.0 devices. Correspondingly, it backward supports 48Mbps USB 2.0 and 12Mbps USB 1.1 legacy hardware. Even better, it officially supports Kinect depth cameras for interactive display and motion capture scenarios. Meanwhile, full USB protocol transparency ensures zero packet loss and no speed throttling during long fiber transmission. In effect, high-speed storage, industrial cameras and motion sensors run at full performance remotely. In turn, users mix multi-generation USB peripherals on one fiber extension system.
3. 4-Port USB-A Hub with 1A Per-Port Power Output
In terms of multi-peripheral expansion, the receiver integrates a 4-port USB-A all-in-one hub. Correspondingly, every single port delivers maximum 1A output current to power power-hungry USB devices. Even better, operators connect cameras, printers, storage disks and Kinect simultaneously at remote terminals. Meanwhile, integrated hub removes extra external splitters to save rack installation space. In effect, one Type-B host port extends four independent powered USB peripherals via one fiber line. Thereby, field technicians simplify remote station wiring and reduce the number of auxiliary hardware.
4. Cross-Platform Driver-Free Plug-and-Play
In terms of system compatibility, this USB 3.0 Fiber Extender uses pure hardware signal conversion without any drivers. Correspondingly, it works seamlessly on Windows 8/8.1/10 and all mainstream Linux & Unix systems. Even better, users plug and play immediately after fiber and USB connection without restarting devices. Meanwhile, no extra firmware updates are required for long-term stable operation. In effect, temporary exhibition booths and factory workshops finish equipment deployment within minutes. Thereby, maintenance workload drops significantly for multi-site projects.
5. Solid Metal Housing & Wide Temperature Adaptability
Last but not least, this USB 3.0 Fiber Extender adopts full black metal TX/RX housings for sturdy shielding. Moreover, the whole set runs on standard 12V DC power for stable multi-device power supply. For starters, it operates reliably from -10°C to 60°C for daily indoor industrial use. Equally, it tolerates harsh storage temperatures ranging from -45°C to +85°C during transit. Additionally, compact TX (110×75×26mm) and RX (135×85×26mm) sizes fit narrow cabinet gaps. Consequently, operators skip extra cooling and anti-interference accessories for 24/7 continuous operation.
