procedures. In a system developed at Boeing (Chicago, IL, USA; www.boeing.com ), Camera Link cameras used with fiber - optic extenders are used to monitor a gimbaled flying boom containing a fuel pipe that is attached to the rear of a tanker aircraft in

applications. Products include Camera Link repeaters, splitters, multiplexers, and 2 x 2 switches. Unique fiberoptic extenders (PHOX), compact fiber adapters (PHIRE and PHAST) support Camera Link Base, Medium, and Full configurations
Link cameras and frame grabbers. One of the most popular of these is the use of stand-alone Camera Link to fiberoptic extenders . Just as Camera Link camera vendors offer different clock speeds and Camera Link modes, fiberoptic extender
Develops and manufactures Camera Link-standard fiberoptic extenders that permit the placement of a base, medium, or full-format camera to 1000 m from the source computer and frame grabber. The
the current Camera Link cables can only extend about 10 m, and in many cases, customers are forced into using fiberoptic extenders to increase this distance. As well, currently available 8-tap and 10-tap cameras are limited to 10-bit and 8
Designs and manufactures high speed data acquisition boards and long range fiberoptic extenders for PCI, PCI Express, PMC, and compact PCI, using Camera Link and LVDS/RS-422. Broad platform support for desktops, workstations

to increase the limited 10-m camera-to-frame-grabber cable lengths of these products. Third-party fiberoptic extenders were soon introduced to meet these demands (see table), and they have worked well for Base- and Medium
length by an additional 10 m. In cases where camera-to-frame-grabber distances must be extended further, fiberoptic extenders are required. Although more expensive than 10-m repeaters, these peripherals can extend camera/computer
