Pike/Stingray fiber infos and cautions
All Pike and Stingray cameras are also available as fiber version with
1 x GOF connector and 1x copper connector.
The GOF connector is of the following type: 2 x optical fiber on LCLC
The GOF transmission uses MMF (multi-mode fiber at 850 nm).
Connect the camera by using either of the connectors. The other connector can
be used to daisy chain a second camera. In case of long distances between PC
and camera, use the GOF connector for the long distance and the IEEE 1394b
connector for optional daisy-chaining. Please ensure that you use a GOF hub on
the PC side for reconversion from GOF to copper (order number E3000074 (with
mounting plate) or E3000084 (with top-hat rail)). Alternatively use PCI or PCI-
Express cards with built in GOF port. Ask your dealer for availability and details
of these cards.
