Hi Friends,
This is Shaney, and come from STAR FIRE TECH, a professional A/V connectivity solution as well as optical communication manufacturing vendor and provider since 2006.
Today, I would like to share some information regarding AOC cables, hope it is helpful to all of you.
Benefits of Fiber Optic as Compared to Copper
- Smaller
- Lighter
- Faster Data
- Far Superior Data Integrity
- EMI/EMS Immunity
Active Optical vs Traditional Copper Approach
Hybrid active optical USB-C power delivery cables are a fast and efficient way to deliver power and reliable data.
An AOC utilizes optical fibers to transmit fast and stable data over nearly unlimited distances with a much smaller footprint than a historical copper-based approach. That historical approach typically uses multiple shielded copper wires and cables over restricted lengths to support a comparable data bandwidth with marginal data integrity.
The combination of optical fiber and copper wire increases performance speeds and reduces multiple copper cables to a single hybrid cable for power, control, and data while preserving compatibility with existing electrical system designs.
Interconnections and cable assemblies are an integral part of any machine vision or factory automation design. Hybrid cable technology incorporating fiber optics offers high bandwidth and integrated power delivery in a single small cable assembly.
Machine Vision Applications
Machine vision is a technology that uses cameras, software algorithms, and other processing hardware to generate rapidly increasing amounts of video and still imagery for real-time analysis.
Vision systems are used in a variety of industries, such as automotive, semiconductor, and electronics, to inspect products for quality and defects. Other common uses include remote collaboration, human safety, security, target identification, automated sorting, measurement, process optimization and documentation.
Machine vision systems require high-speed data transfer with power and control to function efficiently in electrically ‘noisy’ environments. USB-C active optical with power delivery offers high-speed data, power, and control in a consolidated cable. Transmitting data over fiber optics offers inherent EMI and EMS immunity. Utilizing fiber optics within a shielded hybrid cable assembly further enhances data quality to create the superior choice for machine vision applications.
Machine vision applications employing STAR FIRE’s AOC cables with a single, hybrid design, have achieved installed lengths of 50 meters and greater. The capability of the fiber optics within these hybrid cables eliminates the cost and complexity of adding Hubs, Retimers and Redrivers to your data path.
Machine vision and imaging applications are not only more diverse but are demanding more data, long distances, greater reliability, simplified interconnect architecture (smaller, lighter, faster), all at a lower cost. This growth leads to a need for video, data and power optimization, which is solved by employing hybrid fiber optic solutions.
Factory Automation Applications
The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) integrates physical devices and machines with sensors and software to better monitor and control industrial processes.
It is a vital part of Industry 4.0, the fourth industrial revolution, characterized by the convergence of technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence, and the Industrial Internet of Things. IIoT uses actuators and smart sensors to enhance communication and collaboration between machines, humans, and suppliers.
Smart factories are equipped with IIoT technologies to enable a hyperflexible, adaptive, and intelligent production process. This allows for a more efficient and interconnected manufacturing process that can better adapt to changing conditions.
An active optical USB-C power delivery cable is a perfect fit for industrial automation and machine vision systems due to its high bandwidth, long-distance capabilities, and extremely low Bit Error Rate. Reliable and fast data transmission has become more crucial than ever as factories become increasingly automated.
This new hybrid cable technology replaces the need for separate data, power, and control cables, streamlining existing transmission methods and allowing for the continued implementation of IIoT automation and big data.
