1 Prizm Fiber Optic USB 1.1 Link (P/N – 201000-xxx and 201030-
xxx) Overview
The Prizm Fiber Optic USB 1.1 Link provides a transparent USB 1.1 link over single mode fiber at
distances up to 10 kilometers. The Link consists of two boards, a Local Host and a Remote Hub. Both
boards may be mounted on 3U VME plates and powered from a VME backplane, or alternatively they
may be independently powered via a 2-pin connector.
The Local Host board connects to a standard USB 1.1 Host via an industry standard USB cable. A
single mode fiber optic transceiver on the board provides an SC connection to the Remote Hub end of the
USB Link.
The Remote Hub board carries four USB 1.1 peripheral ports that may be used to interface to various
USB 1.1 peripherals. A second, local USB hub may also be plugged into any of the four provided ports
to allow for additional connectivity. A single mode fiber optic transceiver on the board provides an SC
connection to the Local Host end of the Link.
The Link consists of two PC-104 based cards, (3.55” wide, 3.775” long, .8” high), which have
standard PC-104 mounting holes. Both cards can provide pass through of all PC-104 backplane signals
and may be used in PC-104 based systems or they may be mounted separately and supplied with power
through a 2-pin terminal connector.
