READ THESE NOTES BEFORE INSTALLING OR
OPERATING THE USB 400 FO
This equipment provides outstanding extension facilities for any device or USB
application that requires a peripheral connection over a distance, such as a USB
camera or USB hard drive, keyboard, and mouse.
The USB 400 FO works like a USB hub with extension capabilities over a distance
of up to 1,640 feet. This means, for example, that a remote USB sensor can be
placed at a safe distance from the sender unit in situations that demand this type
of security.
The USB 400 FO signal controls the keyboard, mouse, trackball, and other USB
peripherals using send and receive units. The USB signal is extended by using
multi-mode fi ber optic cabling.
The USB 400 FO uses dual multi-mode LC fi ber optic cables to connect the sender
and receiver units.
