USB 2.0/1.1 Fiber Extender for 5km SM or 250m MM Fibers, Plug & Play, Supports Oscilloscope & DAQ Devices

The BY-USB-395DF-FBA device comprises a transmitter and a receiver, which can extend USB 2.0 connectivity to a remote location over 2 cores of fiber cable. It supports a maximum distance of 5 kilometers using singlemode fiber or up to 250 meters using multimode fiber.

This versatile solution has a wide range of applications, including military command and control systems, police command and control systems, traffic management systems, energy and electricity supply industries, government offices, medical systems, commercial presentations, multimedia, and public utilities.

The device supports both USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 devices, such as cameras, printers, scanners, audio devices, USB touch screens, game controllers, mouse and keyboard dongles, FTDI USB to RS232 converters, FPGA programmers, USB video capture devices, Oriental motor controllers, USB Bluetooth dongles, USB headsets, USB to RS232 adapters, spectrum analyzers, arbitrary waveform generators, oscilloscope kits, and data acquisition devices.

The optical connector is a 2 x LC type, operating at a wavelength of 1310nm. It supports various fiber types, including 50/125μm (multimode), 62.5/125μm (multimode), and 9/125μm (singlemode). The fiber distance range is 0 to 5 kilometers.

The physical dimensions of the device are 104mm x 104mm x 28mm, with an aluminum case in black color. The net weight is 0.75kg, and the power supply voltage range is 5 to 12V DC.

The device features a full-duplex design over 2 cores of fiber, with no driver required, making it compatible with all operating systems and supporting plug-and-play functionality.

It automatically recognizes USB devices operating at high-speed (25 Mbps to 480 Mbps), full-speed (500 Kbps to 12 Mbps), and low-speed (10 Kbps to 1.5 Mbps) data rates.

To ensure proper operation, the power-up sequence must be followed carefully. Both the computer and the connected USB device should be completely shut down before making all the connections. The USB device and the transmitter module must be powered up and running before the computer is booted up. Failure to follow this sequence may result in the USB device's driver not being loaded, and the device may not be recognized.

In case the USB device's driver shows "Unknown Device" or cannot identify the device, the user should unplug and replug the receiver module to resolve the issue.

The package includes the transmitter (client-side), the receiver (host-side), a power supply adapter with a US plug for the transmitter, a USB 2.0 cable (for the receiver to be powered by the local PC), and a user manual.

Overall, the BY-USB-395DF-FBA device provides a reliable and convenient solution for extending USB 2.0 connectivity over long distances, making it suitable for a wide range of applications that require remote access to USB devices.
