Equipment Design
USB To Fiber Optic Bit-Driver
S.I. Tech

Supports USB 1.1 and 2.0 plug and play, multimode or singlemode for secure communication, remote security cameras, instruments, or other USB devices, extended-distance. EMI/RFI immunity. Order: 1.KIT #26 for complete multimode system. 11.3181/3182 for tempest version. www.sitech-bitdriver.com

Equipment Design
Fiber Optics Detectors
Newport Corporation

Newport's new 818-xx-L-FC/DB Photodiode Fiber Optic Detectors are based on the industry standard 818 Series detectors, but with a new 884-FC fiber optic adapter mounted on it, making it a low cost alternative. UV Silicon, Silicon, Germanium, and InGaAs versions are introduced. FC/APC and SMA connectors are easily accommodated by replacing the 884-FC with 884-FCA and 884-SMA, respectively. Unscrewing the fiber adapter makes it a free space detector. www.newport.com
