USB-OC Optical USB Converter
10.6.1 Introduction
USB-OC is an standard accessory of the LR-01 programmable Optical
Repeater.
It converts the signals of some of the system’s accessories, which are only
connected via fiber optic, into USB-compatible signals. It, therefore, makes
it possible to link the following items up to the USB port of any Personal
Computer to operate them in conjunction with specific application software
and for firmware updating.
Either USB-OC or USB cable is indispensable for updating the internal
firmware via a Personal Computer and update software is available on
NARDA’s Web site at:

10.6.2 Installation
Insert USB-OC in the connector of a free USB port of the PC, connect the
fiber optic coming from the repeater or other accessories paying attention
to the locating key.
Considering the very low consumption of the device, the power required by
USB-OC is taken directly from the USB port of the PC. This means no
maintenance is needed.
