COMOSS Plastic Optical Fiber Evaluation Board Series

Taipei Taiwan – Feb., 22, 2010 HAPPY NEW YEAR 2010!! COMOSS Plastic Optical Fiber Evaluation Board Series allows the user to examine a data link over POF and to test the operation of the fiber optic transceivers. Each evaluation board carries the POF transceiver components in a through-hole of OPTOLOCKR connecter. The electrical input and output lines from the transceiver are brought out to SMA connectors. The input accepts an LVDS/CML or PECL data source such as a Bit Error Rate Tester (BERT), Pattern Generator, or other signal source. A full-duplex Step Index POF cable links the optical signal to the second board. The receive side of the transceiver generates LVDS/CMS - compatible differential output data signals. The boards are capable of full-duplex operation. In addition to the data input and output signals, the transmitter side also has a Rex input to control the optical power. For normal operation, this input may be tied to ground. The receiver side also provides a Signal Detect (SD) output. If not required, this output may be left open circuit

COMOSS announces the development of POF tester with OPTOKON

Taipei , Taiwan - May 29 , 2008 - Today, COMOSS announces it had reached an agreement with OPTOKON in developing the POF tester together, especially for its OptoLup POF cables. OptoLup cable ; a type of APF (All-plastic Fiber); both the core and the cladding are made of plastic while the refractive index of the core is higher than the cladding. When an optical ray is transmitted at an angle into the cable, the optical ray can be reflect back at the boundary between the core and the cladding for transmitting. One of the most important applications for OptoLup cable is for Optolock technology, the Fast Ethernet fiber optic plugless transceiver, an friendly use low-cost solution. "As a leader in Optical tester manufacturing, OPTOKON is also concentrated on FTTH; Fiber To The Home; products development. ” says Comoss' CEO Stanley Tsai. " OPTOKON is the first strategic partner to develop the all- Optic transmitting platform. COMOSS will continue to work with some strategic partners to develop all of the necessary products to make the FTTX easier and applicable. ” With POF tester developed and manufactured, plugless technology will be easily accepted and widely used. OPTOKON offers variety models for POF tester. Says Dipl. Ing. Jiri Stefl, CEO of OPTOKON, “Combining Comoss' Plugless interconnecting technology and POF products development ability enables us to create vary functional-effective tester for the FTTH, consumer, industrial, and military fiber market." http://igigroup.net/osc3/product_info.php?cPath=28&products_id=56 About OPTOKON

In CES07' Comoss is going to demonstrate all series of POF & electrical connectivity solutions!

Taipei Taiwan - December 27th, 2006 -
One of the demonstration is with the linkage of Buffalo's NAS (Network Attached Storage) and Note book,Along with above POF & electrical connectivity, the leading role of our show can be SMI (Small Media Interface),which deliver POF signals to build up home network. The transmitting performance is going up to 100Mbpsat 50M long and we’ll set up an active network transmitting audio / video at the same time without frame loss!

The other demonstration is with the linkage of 1394 Sony DV camera and Note book, perfectly extend the transmitting distance up to 50M. With isochronous characteristic of 1394 standard, we can see real-time video stream without any frame loss played on the monitor. This firewire solution also allows end-users can access any CE devices such as iPod, DVD player or STB connected to 1394 Ethernet. And the dream of making the automotive as a multimedia moving center would easily to become truth.

Visitors can see these demonstrations at Comoss booth at the same time. And all of the demonstrating components : such as SMI & IDB POF connectors, SMI & IDB POF transceivers, POF patch cords, and converters are allproduced inside the Comoss.

COMOSS Provides New Generation Multimedia Interface–SMI

    Taipei , Taiwan – July 5th, 2005 - COMOSS today releases a series of SMI-related products: 1394B to SMI OE converter , SMI Transceiver , SMI Connector (Plug) and SMI Patch Cord . Not only COMOSS manufactures single components for professional purpose, but also construct a complete solution for setting up home network. “ We've foreseen tremendous market demands for home network, thus we develop and promote SMI as the perfect solution which interconnects devices such as HDTV, Set-up Box, DVD-Recorder, and PC” said by Steven Lai, International Marketing Manager of COMOSS Electronic Co., Ltd.
   SMI (Small Multimedia Interface), is a whole new connection technology, carrying signals meet IEEE1394 standards. The physical transferring media is chosen as POF (Plastic Optical Fiber), for consideration of low-cost and short distance transferring (50M). With the reliable mechanism structure, end-users can push or pull SMI Patch Cord easily, and have no risk of damaging SMI Transceiver itself. Every aspect shows the unique design of SMI interface and it would be no doubt becoming the mainstream in near future.COMOSS invites you to enjoy the future convenience!

Features:
1. Data Rate: S200 (250Mbps)
2. Transmitting Distance: 50 Meters by POF
3. Small Form Factor Design: 1/2 volume of PN connector
4. User Friendly: SMI Plug/Socket with positive latching system
5. Fully Compatible for IEEE1394 Standard
6. No Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)

    Taipei, Taiwan – May 29th, 2005 – COMOSS, an industry-lead manufacturer of IDB 1394 products, is performing several new IDB 1394 sockets, according to the draft annex accepted by Auto CCWG.

    New IDB 1394 sockets will be separated from 4 different keying and colors, which is designed for easy installation and distinct recognition. End-users no longer worry for plugging into the wrong socket since COMOSS has made this innovative design come true!
