hi jack, i'm using a firewire 400 over RJ45 extender (from AVT) on a tour with an AVT Guppy it's work fine with 50m cable, it should work at least until 100m but i never tried it's not possible to use switch to increase the distance with this kind of extender
you can use certain switches with GigE but it increases latency i think another solution for very long distance (more than 100m) is the optical fiber you can find some firewire over optical fiber extender Basler made a technical report on industrial cameras interface here : http://www.i2s-vision.fr/upload/BAS1108_Interfaces.pdf hope this helps ++ a. -- do it yourself http://antoine.villeret.free.fr http://drii.ensad.fr -- Google lit ce mail... si vous refusez cela, utilisez l'adresse antoine.villeret [at] free.fr pour me contacter Le 1 avril 2012 13:56, Jack <[email protected]> a écrit : > Le 01/04/2012 02:22, Max a écrit : > >> Am 01.04.2012 um 01:53 schrieb Jack: >> >>> PS : does anybody tried an other solution (like GigE or >>> USB<->Ethernet<->USB) with Gem when you need long distance between camera >>> and computer ?
