SlimRun™ USB 3.0 is an active optical cable system designed to connect two USB-enabled devices with high performance; low power consumption; and low cost. Using optical fiber to replace copper wire as the high-speed signal transmission medium; SlimRun can perfectly transmit USB 3.0 (5Gbps) and USB 2.0 (480Mbps) to distances up to 150 feet. Compared with traditional copper wire cables; SlimRun USB is not only longer; softer; and slimmer; but also offers better signal quality without the need for external power for USB 3.0 speeds. Compared with other optical fiber transmission solutions; SlimRun USB 3.0 is easier to use and is backwards compatible with USB 2.0; with no need for converters. Extend USB 3.0 up to 150ft Plug and Play Optional External Power Thinner and Softer Extend USB 3.0 up to 150ft: SlimRun™ USB 3.0 can perfectly transmit 5Gbps of bandwidth to distances up to 150 feet (45 meters) without extenders; using optical fiber to replace copper wire as the high-speed signal transmission medium. Plug and Play: Other USB extender solutions require multiple sets of wires; cables; transmitters; receivers; and screws to mount boxes. SlimRun™ USB 3.0 combines the benefits of traditional extension solutions into a single optical cable. Optional External Power: Power is optional but not necessary for meeting the high speed standards of USB 3.0. Thinner and Softer: SlimRun™ USB 3.0 is thinner and softer than traditional glass fiber optic cables. Flexible polymer optical cable has a tighter bend radius and is much more resistant to damage and abuse than traditional fiber optic cables made of glass.
